BALTIMORE, MD – Olympic champion Michael Phelps was photographed smoking marijuana from a bong, and he’s blaming the Hungarians!
Phelps is an American legend, having won a record-breaking eight gold medals at the 2008 Olympic games. The press have started tracking him relentlessly, keeping tabs on his new hard-partying behavior.
The British paper News of the World published the photo of Phelps, reportedly taken at a college party at the University of South Carolina in November. He has since issued an explanation:
“I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment. However, I cannot take the blame for this. As many fans know, I beat Hungarian swimmer Laszlo Cseh in three separate races last summer, and I believe he has been out to get me ever since. I blame Laszlo and the Hungarian government for setting me up!”
According to Phelps’ story, he was visiting a friend on campus when an athletic exotic-sounding female invited him to a party. “I decided to attend, but was adamant about staying sober to be the designated driver. Little did I know this ‘woman’ would be spiking my ginger ale!”
She later showed him an apparatus that would supposedly improve his breath control. “Gosh golly, I had no idea what it was, so I gave it a huff!” Phelps then heard a camera shutter and the ‘woman’ took off. Laszlo Cseh was later spotted in a parked car eating goulash while two men in suits and sunglasses examined a camera.
Hungarian ambassador Dr. Ferenc Somogyi has labeled Phelps’ claims “preposterous”, and added, “We refuse to respond to such outlandish stories.”
Where's the smoke and bubbles?-? FIRE, no flame remember " if the glove doesn't fit you must a quit " Best Wishes
Yeah right; this "story" isn't credible. He didn't know what a bong was? Ha! Michael Phelps was aware he was burning something and inhaling the smoke, there's no denying that. The only question is: Was he being disengenuous when he said he would never do it again in order to mitigate his loss of money from endorsements?
i've gotta hand it to Phelps for being man enough to acknowledge his actions and apologize — he's still a decent role model despite the hypocritical media storm
Not a role model to me or the thousands of students that I've taught over the years…
next thing you know, Phelps will be trading in his medals to score something even more hardcore than weed — like a pack of Marlboros!
hahahah yeah,sure he didn't know what it was…he was having a good time,pot isn't bad.
Its not so bad he was just been him self and silly thats what normal people do so the media need to get a grip and move on to these felonys around the United States
Normal? How can something illegal be normal? More people have never done it than have. It might be normal in your world, but that's near-sighted.
Phelps should no better, the volcano vaporizor is more healthy and he could pick up a new sponsor.
This post goes out to David A. Pot is good and about 40% of people will admit they have tried marijuana by the time they graduate. Besides the only reason you feel that way is because while you were growing up the gov. was pumping your head full of false acusations about what weed does to people. Smoking weed should be legal and taxed. This solves our economic problem right here. Tapping into a trillion dollar black market industry that has potential to turn things around. No other drugs are good just marijuana. If you believe not than you must not be smokin'!!! Stay up and dont let David A. bring you down he's just jealous
YAH bro u know whats up. fer sure weed needs to become legal and taxed. who cares if they tax it, just grow yur own and sell it cheeper than the gov. does. David a needs to get his facts right and experience the holy herb cus its a great thing and should be smoked by everyone.
Big deal….and Kellogs taking the moral high road while they sell sugar sprayed corn and contribute to the development of poor eating habits, give me a break. You are better off eating the box! Forget these sponsors and like minded thinkers. You have my support Michael!
HE NEW WHAT HE WAS DOIN HELL WHY NOT SMOKE WEED WHEN YOUVE JUST WON A COUPLE OF MEDALS I WISH I COULD HAVE SMOKED WITH HIM BUT YAE IF YOU NEED SOME YOU NO WHERE WE AT IN THE 256 BABE IN HUNTSVIILE AL THATS WHERE ALL OF IT AT
Yeah Pot is a very potent and it's an illegal substance in US. Many things been said and many opinions exist about legalizing it or not?
As of right now its still an open, undecided question. And while many waiting for resolution, you can either do what your stars( Nicole, Paris, Linsey, Britney, Brad, Phelps) do and ignore the law or you can try smoking something legal, or quit.
For those of you still seeking for new spiritual experiences I would recommend a Legal Herbal Smoking of such herbs as Salvia, Kanna, Wild Dagga, etc;)
