I don’t know why you’re being downvoted, that’s the account. It probably didn’t happen, but it made a great story. The greediest, richest man in Rome bought an army and was made to drink what he craved most when he failed. Poetic justice.

Yes, I know ; there are a few stories of his death, some mutually exclusive. The most popular is the version that he was beheaded, "gold-fed" and his head used instead of cabbage in a theatrical play, the place is disputed too, most likely Ecbatana or Susa, but there's also a version of that happening in Artaxata (matches the premise where it's said that he didn't listen to Artavazd's warning out of his pride, and then Artavazd decided to "betray" Crassus by remaining loyal to Parthia).

I think I've heard a version of him being overfed with meat and fat and made drink cold water, thus dying ; well, I don't know if it's even a working way to execute someone.
