TAMPA, Fla. - The Florida Highway Patrol says anyone missing two big bags of pot can call their Tampa area office. A crew picking up litter from along Interstate 4 near Tuesday morning made an unusual find: two big plastic garbage bags stuffed with freshly harvested marijuana.
FHP Trooper Larry Coggins says the 60 pounds of pot might be worth around $54,000 on the street. It probably fell off or was thrown from a car on the interstate.
The plants appeared freshly picked and some had intact roots.
Coggins says it's not the largest amount of pot ever dumped along a roadside, but it's certainly not a common find.
Now it's not dumb that they found this, but it makes you wonder how it got there. Did it fly out of the bed of a truck, did they just forget it, or did some druggie wake up to realize that his ticked off girlfriend had tossed out two trash bags of his weed.
The dumb part comes in at the point that you know that someone might be actually dumb enough to try to claim this. Like some already messed up high school or college students, just mark my words, it'll happen.
