Former NFL Player Dies After 4 Day Cocaine Bender with Strippers

Josh Mauro

Hey hustlers,

Drugs are bad mmkay?

This story is another cautionary tale about partying way too much. A lot of people on social media are questioning the stripper’s account that they were “sleep” before finding Josh dead on the floor while others are applauding him for dying “doing what he wanted to do”.

My thing is, I love a good party but who wants to die on a cold hard floor strung out on coke and surrounded by people who are not your family or loved ones?

Seems like a cold way to go, but to each is own. RIP Josh.


Daily Mail — Tragic NFL star Josh Mauro had been snorting cocaine on a four-day bender before his death from an accidental overdose, according to a medical report.

The former New York Giants, Arizona Cardinals, and Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end died at the age of just 35 in April.

Now, a Phoenix Police Department case report reveals that he had been partying with several women – including a dancer – in the hours before his death.

It is reported that Mauro first met the dancer a week earlier, later inviting her, a friend and two other women to a gathering at his home in the early hours of April 23.

The woman told police that, while at Mauro’s property, the ex-NFL star and his friend began snorting cocaine, while ‘all of them’ drank tequila and listened to music.

The report then states that the dancer and the other women went upstairs to sleep ‘after a few hours’, while Mauro and his friend remained downstairs.

She went on to reveal that when she woke, she discovered Mauro alone and apparently dead on the floor, before desperately trying to revive him and calling the emergency services.

The unnamed woman also claims that Mauro had told her he’d been on a ‘bender for four days’ before her arrival, while she also said she noticed he would get frequent nosebleeds and would sweat after snorting cocaine.

The report adds that a bottle cap with a white substance in it was found near Mauro’s body, as well as a white powdery substance near a rolled-up dollar bill, tissues with apparent blood on them, and a syringe in a trash can.
