Cannabis blunder at Tokyo airport

I hope the sniffer dog in question isn't given a pat on the back, a golden handshake and shown the airport door.

We're all allowed one mistake right?

Interesting. I can only imagine the surprise on the passenger's face when he opened his bag.

142 grams of pot worth $10K. That works out to about $40,000 per pound. Must be some killer weed!

haha..!

The article never mentions whether the weed was recovered or if the passenger got a big hit, I mean gift..

I thought this kind of stupidity only happened in the U.K? Let's hope the person notices the pot before they check their bag in again. The Japanese are quite strict on drugs. Even possessing a Vicks sinus spray can get you into trouble.

I always think they make those street values up to suit their needs, although this is one instance where the officials would want to play down the amount of Cannabis involved, rather than exaggerate it.

OH! YA! and that guy that swallowed balloons full of cocaine was just testing the strength of the rubber before his cousins birthday party.

These days, getting busted at the airport can f*** up your year and, since using the old "I have no idea how that got in there" excuse hasn't worked in the history of drugs or law enforcement, I only hope he didn't get stopped when he got off his flight from Tokyo.

This is just wrong...

Can't they get into trouble for messing with someone's personal luggage?

hah, most normal people would kill for that much weed after thier teenage years. most people lose thier numbers and forget where to get it, ask your parents if they still have thier dealers numbers :P

I hope that guy gets to keep that bud.

I wouldn't mind a "present" like that every now and then!

Okay. so I started the day off with a laugh and a smile!

i wonder who the luck winner was ha

$70/gram is expensive. That can't be right

well tokyos damn expensive and it aint easy trafficing weed through orient countries like japan. :P then again they do tend to over measure the severity of marijuana so who knows what the street price is in there, the man/woman/child got some free weed in tokyo, score.

This is too funny! I wonder if he pocketed some?

Lucky S.O.B

I read that they tracked the guy down and he didn't even notice the stuff. this is hilarious!
