Michael Phelps Pot Incident Sparks Just Say No To Pot Roast
Written by Vegetarian Star on February 5th, 2009 in Athletes-Games-Sports.
So most of us know by now that Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, who broke a record last year in taking home gold medals was photographed taking a big o’ whiff of marijuana at a party last November.
Anti-drug campaigners have come up with catchy slogans in the past to steer people away from this lifestyle, but People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has found a whole new reason to ask you to “Just Say No To Pot.”
Pot Roast.
“Don’t be a meathead. Kick the habit,” is written next to a cow, with an additional plea to go vegetarian.
“No one knows if marijuana is addictive (although some people swear it is), but eating meat sure seems to be,” the group said on their website. “Witness all the grownups who can’t even contemplate “giving up meat” even when they are fat, impotent, and at risk for a heart attack. And these are the same people who say that they love animals but go right on causing them immense suffering.”
“Maybe Michael will see our billboard and abandon the pot roast too…”
You can bet most ladies would gladly see Phelps take off his clothes in the name of at least an anti-fur ad for the group.
