Philly PD To Make World's Largest Bong

The other day, the Philadelphia police were responding to a robbery call in West Philly and -- whoops! -- stumbled over $11.6 million of marijuana.

Now, obviously, if the police force were to, say, sell that $11.6 million of marijuana on the sly, that could make, oh, somewhere in the neighborhood of $11.6 million. But, of course, marijuana being illegal, the cops are just going to burn all the weed.

I'm no scientist, but it seems to me that burning a giant pile of weed might not be the best way to get rid of it, especially considering burning leaves is one way to turn them into, say, smoke. I fear that an 11.6 million dollar bonfire bong of marijuana will make every citizen in the 135 square miles of this city high. Actually, that might calm down some of our high-strung residents. Hmm.

Still, though, I'm not sold. And, apparently, neither was Metro, which asked the following:

What's that dude in the center doing? Petting an exceptionally large, cute doggy? Leaning on a bike rack? Patting the head of a dwarf?

Although, maybe it has something to do with that $11.6 million worth of weed he's planning on smoking. That'd make anyone do crazy shit.
