In the early days of being on the road, Blake Shelton says he flushed weed down the toilet at a McDonalds in Birmingham. In an interview posted on Taste of Country, he said he did it because he thought he was going to jail.
He was at the restaurant for a radio station promotion when a fan stopped by and gave him a gift, something in a paper bag. A few minutes later, Blake opened it and when he saw what was in it, he got scared. He thought that he was being set up to be arrested, so he ran to the bathroom and flushed it.
Laughing while recalling the story, Blake said, he was only 24 at the time. If it happened today, he be like, “hey, hey, hey,” and it would be a different story.
TL;DR:
- In his early days, Blake Shelton flushed weed down the toilet at a McDonalds.
- A fan gave him a bag of weed and he thought he was being set up.
