World Record Joint Called Off
November 23rd, 2006 by Tim
Sad news. It looks like the previous record-setter of 3.5 ounces (100 grams) will stand as the current joint champ.
Unfortunately, the recently reported World’s Biggest Joint attempt has been canceled when event organizers realized that laws would be broken if they continued. Upon further investigation of Dutch drug laws, the group noticed a loop hole they believed to exist is neither a loop nor a hole and, in fact, is very illegal.
The whole idea was to have 100 people bring five grams each, a legal amount by Dutch authority standards, and then combine all the marijuana the day of the event. The police had this to say:
We would definitely have investigated this. If you make a single joint with half a kilo of cannabis in it, it would cross the line.
So, looks like it’s a no-go at this point and I can’t say I’m surprised…
