Jimmy Kimmel treats SXSW stoners, Willie Nelson to a 'pot quiz'
Most of the weed-smoking attendees of South by Southwest in Austin fare about as well as you'd expect on Jimmy Kimmel Live's "Texas Toasted Edition" of Kimmel's patented Pot Quiz. But after the usual suspects flunk the history portion and pass the stoner section of the quiz, the Kimmel crew talks to somebody who aces both parts: Willie Nelson. Willie even answered other people's questions. "I can't believe he didn't know that was FDR," Nelson said. "He must be smoking better shit than I got." Well played, Willie. —Peter Weber
