NO ONE IS IMMUNE –
Jan. 17, 2024 – He said he’s been to rehab “at least 15 times” and once overdosed while attempting to detox when he mixed multiple drugs.
“The doctor goes, ‘Um, Jim, you’re one lucky man because I had signed virtually the death certificate,” Irsay told Kramer during an episode of “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.” Colts owner Jim Irsay was found unresponsive, gasping for air and cold during a suspected overdose this past December, according to TMZ.
Cops labeled the incident as an “overdose” and “overdose/poisoning,” per the report.
Police were called to Irsay’s home in Carmel, Ind., around 4:30 a.m. on Dec. 8, according to police department documents cited by TMZ, after an individual informed the police they had found Irsay unconscious on his bathroom floor and his skin had turned blue.
Irsay was in his bed by the time the police arrived, but he was having breathing issues, a weak pulse and constricted pupils, according to the report.
The police unsuccessfully attempted to wake Irsay with a sternum rub, per TMZ, and “he responded slightly” after one dose of Narcan, which can be used to help individuals who have overdosed on opiates.
