    Police Pull Over Couple For Buckeye Bumper Stickers They Mistook For Marijuana Leaves




    A middle-aged couple driving through Tennessee on their way home from a funeral were pulled over by a police officer who mistook their Ohio Buckeye bumper stickers for marijuana leaves.
    The Columbus Dispatch reports:

    Two officers approached, one on each side of the car.

    “They were very serious,” [the driver, Bonnie Jonas-Boggioni] said. “They had the body armor and the guns.” […]

    “What are you doing with a marijuana sticker on your bumper?” [an officer] asked her.

    She explained that it is actually a Buckeye leaf decal, just like the ones that Ohio State players are given to put on their helmets to mark good plays. […]

    The officer then explained that someone from outside his jurisdiction — apparently another officer — had spotted the leaf sticker and thought it might indicate that the car was carrying marijuana, Jonas-Boggioni said. […]

    Looks like these officers went though our new and improved education system. They think five leaves is the same as seven.
