Frat Pledge Before Death: "It's About to Be a Very Eventful Night"
A dead fraternity pledge shared an eerily prescient message on social media Wednesday, tweeting, "It's about to be a very eventful night to say the least," just hours before he was found unconscious on the floor of a West Virginia University frat house.
Late Wednesday night, 18-year-old Nolan Burch was found without a pulse and not breathing inside WVU's Kappa Sigma house. On Thursday, the university suspended all fraternities and sororities until further notice. On Friday, Burch died.
Burch's final message, along with an earlier one reading "Still hammered," can still be seen on the teen's Twitter page.

According to Kappa Sigma's national office, the WVU chapter of the fraternity had been suspended for "previous, unrelated violations" since mid-October and had been told on Monday to cease operations.
