File this under "not smart": A Nebraska man was cited for possession of less than an ounce of marijuana after deputies found a sour cream container marked "Not Weed" in his car that was actually filled with the stuff.
The 21-year-old Lincoln man was stopped on Saturday night, and despite his best efforts, Lancaster County Sheriff's deputies weren't fooled by his fake label and opened up the container to discover 11.4 grams of marijuana, the Lincoln Journal Star reports. The man admitted it was his, and was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. Points for at least trying to pull a fast one?
