You can't make this stuff up. But it is an interesting question to ask our sheriff candidates in our local upcoming election...

1. The sheriff's on the front lines
of the so called drug war every day...and knows enough that he's not willing to destroy someone's future for a bit of cannabis. There are far worse threats to public safety.

Would only that all cops were this decent.

2. Heck I remember the good ol' days at Kinnick when we snuck in kegs too!

Just passed them over the fence and had a great time in the crowd. Before Hayden Fry came along, the football teams at times would watch the activities more in the stands (people getting drunk, stoned and passing people up, etc.) than the crowd watched the games...

The sheriff sounds like he knows that turf there and how to keep people happy... Rethug legislators should stay the hell out!
