[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Renaud Prudhomme, 56, broke the in-house shots record last October at Starter, a bar in the central French town of Clermont-Ferrand. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]He had spent the evening with his daughter and some friends who helped him home in his [url=http://dict.qsbdc.com/inebriated][b]inebriated[/b][/url] state, but they soon had to phone the emergency [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/100907.html]services[/url]. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Prudhomme, a large man weighing around 120 kilos (260 pounds), died in hospital the following day. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Barman Gilles Crepin, 47, admitted at an earlier hearing that he had made "a mistake" by displaying the shots record on a noticeboard, encouraging the victim to go too far.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]He was given a four-month suspended sentence by a local court on Wednesday and banned from working in a bar for a year. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]His lawyer said he would appeal the ruling. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"It's a decision guided by emotion and the unconscious desire to set an example," said Renaud Portejoie, who had called for the case to be thrown out. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Portejoie said his client bore no responsibility, adding that it was the man's daughter who had pushed him to break the record, and that he had existing [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/100907.html]respiratory[/url] and alcohol abuse problems. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"We can't ask every customer who buys alcohol to present their medical certificates," said Portejoie.[/size][/font]
