'The whole stadium just reeks of marijuana.'

Apparently the 12th Man for the University of California-Berkeley’s football team is a plume of pot terpenes.

Gov. Ron DeSantis revealed that University of Miami football players struggled with an unnatural olfactory element during a recent road game.

“Some of these guys are telling me like they practically got high just from being in the stadium, that literally the whole stadium just reeks of marijuana,” DeSantis said during a roundtable against Amendment 3, which would legalize recreational pot.

Miami won the game 39-38 with a touchdown with just 26 seconds remaining, suggesting that perhaps the California football fans were smoking energizing sativas rather than sedative indicas, given that both teams stayed awake for a game that went down to the wire.

DeSantis had given Miami and Florida State credit for beating the Golden State gridiron squad previously, saying the Florida teams were winning the “war on woke.”

However, even warriors must deal with chemical weapons from time to time, and congrats to the Hurricanes for overcoming the elements.

    Our Governor is a square-shaped douchebag.

    Well, hopefully, Miami can return the favor next year if there is a game played at Hard Rock.

    I got a newsflash for Ronnie. Most stadiums smell of the reefer.

    I doubt this conversation was had between the players and the governor. Seems nonsensical. Rec weed. Tax it. Improve infrastructure. Improve everything. We could learn a lot from other states and also from other countries.
