I love Mitch Hedberg....a brilliant comedian and timely. I was reading this story and instantly remembered his joke:
"I love my fed-ex guy cause he's a drug dealer and he don't even know it...and he's always on time."
So it turns out that someone in Florida tried sending 200 pounds of marijuana to Baltimore but Fed Ex delivered it to the wrong address. The police became aware after the delivery was made and were contacted by the party with the wrong delivery.
In the vein of a Law and Order episode, the police posed as fake Fed Ex employees and delivered the weed to the right person...and then arrested him for "possession of a large quantity of a controlled dangerous substance with intent to distribute along."
Dude, both parties in this transaction have balls. I mean balls. How do you even think of trying to smuggle that much weed? The police said that they found more shipments that contained 400 lbs. of weed as well.
After reading this story, I realized that the saying "there's truth in comedy" is absolutely true. I think this story is hilarious but I also think it's funny that I remembered Mitch Hedberg's joke about this as well. Just goes to show you that the funniest jokes seem to be the ones that come from a real place.
