Phish Kicks Off Summer Tour in Boston
June 1st, 2009 by RickThe first concert to the summer tour of the the band Phish kicked off at Boston’s Fenway Park and was greatly enhanced thanks to a newly decriminalized Massachusetts law.
The law fines a person $100 if they are caught with less than an ounce of marijuana. If you happen to be a minor, you still have to pay the fine but you also have to do community service and attend a drug-awareness program.
Obviously people would have still brought weed with them to the concert even if the laws hadn’t have been decriminalized. Culture has dictated that this dangerous gateway drug is approved by the community at large to be used recreationally as well as medicinally. Studies upon studies have been released, debunking the neanderthal thinking of typical drug dinosaurs. Rawwwr!
Note: One of the most recent Phish concerts in Hampton, VA was in the news about how almost 200 people were arrested, mostly for narcotics related charges, and $1.2M worth of drugs were recovered. Mugshots of those arrested even made the internet, via the Smoking Gun.
