Joint Offering

"Marijuana is like sex," Willie Nelson once declared. "If I don't do it every day, I get a headache." After playing a concert at the White House in 1978, Nelson accepted President Jimmy Carter's invitation to have him stay as a guest for the night. Before turning in, he wandered up to the roof and enjoyed "a big fat Austin torpedo."

Stoner

Famed pitcher Tug McGraw was once asked whether he preferred grass or Astroturf. "I dunno," he replied. "I never smoked any Astroturf."

Pothead?

One day in the mid-1970s, Bruce Willis was stopped by a cop while walking down a street in Montclair, New Jersey drinking a beer. "What's this?" the cop asked, pointing behind his ear. "Oooops - a joint," Willis replied - and was promptly busted for marijuana possession.

Snoop Dogg's Bong

"The contraption stands in his garage, roughly four feet tall, with 20 bowls and enough twisting tubes to strike fear in the hearts of even Cheech and Chong," Stuff's Jonathan Small once reported. "Snoop's bong is a feat of modern engineering, but amazingly, he's never used it." Why not? "We tried," Snoop explained, "but we didn't have enough weed."

[Snoop explained that he employed people just to roll his joints: "A lot of people handle that role. There's a lot of people who do different roles for me... I got people who pour my Moët for me, roll my blunts, have my clothes ready. I'm a conglomerate, so I need all these things to be moving."]

[Trivia: Snoop once narrowly avoided serving time in jail. "I guess," he explained, "I'm just a likable motherf---er."]

Rodney Dangerfield: Beverly Hilton

"I was living for years at the Beverly Hilton Hotel," Rodney Dangerfield once recalled. "And [Bill Clinton] came in there one night to check in, because he was making a speech in the morning, and he chose to sleep on my floor - the 8th floor. Everyone else had to get out but he was very nice. He said, 'Rodney you don't have to get out. Just stay here. It's okay.' We talked and he was very nice...
"I looked out of his door window - of his suite - and saw my suite, and in the doorway of my suite, I saw two big dogs walking in there with two big secret service men. I thought to myself, 'Gee, I mean, I've got a half ounce of pot in there - anything could happen. Wow!'

"So I was going nuts, you know. And finally I walk back to my place. I see the dogs there. They're still fishing around, fishing around... but the dogs were very nice. Very hip dogs, very hip dogs - and on the way out, one of 'em winked at me!"

Ringo Stoner

Beatles drummer Ringo Starr was once asked whether he had smoked marijuana in Buckingham Palace as rumored. His reply? "I was too stoned to remember."

Oliver Stoner?

Willem Dafoe once explained why the scene in which his character (Sergeant Elias) and his mates smoke marijuana in Oliver Stone's Platoon seemed so authentic: That they lit up real Thai weed before shooting.

Jim Carroll: Gateway Drug

Jim Carroll once explained how he had become a drug addict. "From the movies or something," he recalled, "I knew opium was addictive, so in my mind, I wrongly associated smoking with addiction. I thought grass was the addictive drug. So the first time I ever got high was on heroin — I was afraid to smoke pot because I thought it would give me a habit!"

Bonehead Fan

Like many rockers, Elton John was literally showered with gifts from adoring fans. During one concert, a pot-loving fan threw a hash pipe onstage; it hit his idol in the head and knocked him out.

Rodney Dangerfield: High German Chocolate Cake

"I came home one night at three or four in the morning and I was very hungry," Rodney Dangerfield once recalled. "And I saw on the kitchen table a German chocolate cake. It looked delicious, you know. So right away, my plan hit me. I'll smoke a joint, get high, and I'll start eating German chocolate cake with skim milk.
"So I did that. I got high and before you know it I've finished half the cake. I lit a cigarette and sat back, and all of a sudden I noticed the chocolate was moving. I looked closer and saw thousands and thousands of little red ants, crawling all over the place, the whole bottom of the cake. 'Wow! Look at that, I just ate a whole army of red ants.' So I called the hospital and the guy at the hospital said, 'Don't worry about it. It'll all go out as waste...'"

["I think people said the same thing to my mother when she was pregnant with me."]

Oval Office

In 1977, Crosby, Stills and Nash performed for President Jimmy Carter at the White House. At one point, the band was briefly left alone in the Oval Office. They promptly fired up a joint.

Jeff Bridges: El Duderino

In 2002, Jeff Bridges appeared as "the Dude AKA Duder AKA His Dudeness AKA El Duderino" in the Coen Brothers' comedy The Big Lebowski. Despite playing the ultimate stoner, Bridges smoked nothing during the shoot. "I did it all from memory," he later remarked, "and I had a lot to draw on!"

Chester Bennington at the VMAs

Following the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards at New York's Radio City Music Hall, Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington admitted that he had smuggled marijuana past security... in his underwear!

Researchers have discovered that chocolate produces some of the same reactions in the brain as marijuana. The researchers also discovered other similarities between the two but can't remember what they are.
