Swallowing live goldfish was the rage in the 70's amongst college students who were too selfconscoius to streak.

Raw meat can harbor dangerous bacteria. I agree they need to stop this. The fishies need to be battered and fried first.

Goldfish????
I've heard of dancin' with rattlers, an drinkin' strychnine, but where in the Bible does it discuss swallowin' LIVE GOLDFISH????
