BongGate: Eight Arrests In SC

South Carolina police have made eight arrests in relation to the ridiculous Michael Phelps bong hit photo. Columbia’s TV 10 got the scoop:

We’ve now learned that since investigators began trying to build a case, they’ve made eight arrests: seven for drug possession and one for distribution. These are arrests that resulted as the sheriff’s department served search warrants. We’ve also learned that the department has located and confiscated that bong. Sources say the owner of the bong was trying to sell it on eBay for as much as $100,000. The owner, who wasn’t even at the party, is one of the eight now charged. Phelps is not one of those charged at this point, but the sheriff’s department has strong evidence that matches the photo to the house on Blossom Street.

Asking $100K for a bong Michael Phelps took a hit from. I love America.
