Sources confirm that the state of Louisiana and LSU have formulated a master plan.

Step 1: legalize recreational Marijuana, tax the hell out if it, government gets 10s or even 100s of million of extra cash.

Step 2: all the legal dope leads to a lot of getting stoned, which leads to a lot of cases of the munchies, which leads to a meteoric rise in corn dog production, thus stimulating the economy while adding extra jobs, which leads to more taxes and more government money.

Step 3: legalized weed cuts down on illegal drug transactions, which cuts down the need for gangsters, which cuts down on the amount of prisoners the government must pay for, while also forcing said gangsters to get a 9-5, and stimulating the economy while also spending less on prisoners and getting more taxes from the quick drop in unemployment rates.

Step 4: take NOLA's vibe, reputation, and anything goes atmosphere and juice it for everything it's worth by coining and transforming it into the Amsterdam of America and thus creating one of the top tourist destinations internationally. This rise in tourist creates a need for more hotels, more jobs, more restaurants, more pot dispensaries, which all leads to more tax money, and more money for the government.

Step 5: Indirectly use this state wide economic boom, newfound carefree lifestyle and rise in tourism by selling 1.5x if not 2x more lottery tickets, thus further stimulating the economy and once again receiving more money by the government.

Step 6: use all the extra government money from steps 1-5 to first, start cutting into the State's debt, which pushes A LOT more money to LSU, which allows them to fire Coach O, pay his buyout, and then call up Urban Meyer, hire him, and give him a now legal excuse to his actions and an oddly familiar, yet no doubt catchy, public apology that goes a little something like this:

"I was gonna file that domestic violence report, until I got high..
I was gonna standup, and take it to Court, but then I got high..
And now years later I was forced to lie, and I know why
(Why man??)
Say heyyyy... Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got highhhh..
(La duh da da da da da)

I was gonna report it and cover my arse, but then I got high.
I could have puffed it, or I could have passed, but I got high.
Now I'm eating corndogs and I know why
(Why man?)
Say heyyyy... Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got highhhh..
(La duh da da da da da)
