Cliff Burton

Cliff Burton
Cliff Burton was the bass player for Metallica. He fell victim to a “turn of an unfriendly card”. On September 27th, 1987 while traveling thru Europe on their tour bus, their tour manager decided to stop the constant bickering over the sleeping arrangements by drawing cards. Cliff Burton drew high card , the Queen of Spades, and chose the “Master Suite”. That very same day the bus slid off an icy road onto its side. While trying to climb out the window, the bus toppled over and crushed him to death.
