The bad economy was starting to get to the members of Phish so they decided to give their first concert in five years. It was a three day concert held in the beach town of Hampton, VA this past weekend. The problem was that the economy was also getting to the Hampton police department. When they found out that Phish was coming to town dollar signs flashed.
Over the three day the cops confiscated $1.2 million in drugs and more than $68,000 from concert goers (that's enough money to pay for two rookie cops and enough ganja to keep the whole force unstressed for the year). They also arrested over 190 people who will have to pay some sorta fine and/or post bail.
All in all, this was a good weekend for Phish and the Hampton Police; Phish fans, not so much.
