Man waiting for tools gets brick of marijuana

DENTON, Texas — A man in Denton, Texas who was expecting a shipment of tools instead received a 30-pound brick of marijuana that police say is worth more than $10,000. Officer Ryan Grelle says the man opened the box Monday night, realized it contained drugs and contacted police.

The package from the Pharr area was handled by UPS in McAllen on Jan. 6. and apparently was intended for a Dallas address.

The Denton Record-Chronicle reports no such address exists in Dallas, so the package wound up 40 miles to the northwest at the similar address in Denton.

9. I've always dreamed of the UPS-delivered weed-by-mistake BUT...

...I've read enough about how some of these busts go down to realize they may sometimes deliver it anyway and then bust you a day or two later if you don't report it, presuming it really was intended for you.

  Then again, I live in Eugene, Oregon. I'm pretty sure if you take a shovel and dig for more than 10 minutes you'll hit the Weed Layer.

Here's squinting at you, kid!

11. That must be some lousy weed if it's worth only $10 K

14. I was thinking the same thing, sorta

if they'd have busted some kid with it, it would have been worth 37 gadjillion dollars. I guess the economic downturn has finally hit the weed supply.:wtf:
