  4. She died on October 8, 2004, in Indianapolis, Indiana, from breast cancer. The claim that a cheetah “later ate her” is a recurring internet joke

  5. The claims are not exclusive. She could have died of breast cancer, and then been eaten by her cheetah.

    1. Heck yeah. A house cat will eat its owner if left in the same room for a few days with the deceased person.

  6. Old USC joke was that after Clempson got on FB probation, they were going to ditch being the Tigers and renamed the Cheetahs.
