Mnemonic

Your death will be because of a bowling (ぼう) accident. Oh, you didn't know? You're going to be hit by a giant bowling ball and crushed flat.

You didn't want to know what would cause your death, you say? Well that's a shame. I guess you could try to avoid bowling from now on, but that won't do any good. Mark my words, your death will be bowling-related.
