Pum'kin Chuckin' at the border

[Purple-Days]

At the Arizona / Mexican border they just missed catching the smartest smugglers yet (IMO).

You've probably seen the compressed air cannons for hurling pumpkins long distances... These fellows had a mobile Pum'kin Chucker and were hurling 4 pound bundles of pot over the border.

CNN had video's of it. The newscasters couldn't help themselves from laughing.

I am surprised that Fox News isn't calling this an act of war.

Thats hilarious. I had imagined a vehicle mounted version so that when stopped by the powers that be I could "cannon" some questionable items into the sunset. Though I think I'd probably be stuck with bazooka related charges.

Cracked me up! I think I'll wear my Wile E. Coyote t-shirt tomorrow in honor. Ironically it says "Get over it"

The chucking weed bales over the border is just too funny!
