...According to the potheads over at COED Magazine. (Them muhfuckas over there are hilarious!)



In the classic documentary Pumping Iron, he is seen smoking, and loving, a joint. Schwarzenegger hasn’t been puffing since his election to office, but he has presided over California’s recent medical marijuana renaissance. According to Arnold, marijuana “is not a drug, it’s a leaf.”


The Governator is only one. Check the rest - in no particular order - after the stretch.

STRETCH...

MICHAEL PHELPS


Phelps has given a few interviews decrying his “bad judgment,” promising it was a dumb mistake that never happened before and won’t happen again… but we know that’s bullsh*t. It might be his last, but it definitely wasn’t his first. This means that you can become the most world class athlete of all time and be a pot smoker at the same time. Stereotype shattered.




SIR RICHARD BRANSON


While the ‘Sir’ in front of this guy’s name puts him in some very elite company, it doesn’t automatically get him on this list. Not only does this man smoke weed, he gets high with his 21-year-old son. He has publicly stated that there’s nothing wrong with smoking pot, has petitioned for the legalization of pot, and even said that if it were legal, he’d sell it.




TED TURNER


Ted is a rare breed of billionaire — he comes off as completely absent minded, incapable of even putting on his own pants. Yet he is a mega-mogul. Not what you’d expect from a guy who grew pot in his college dorm room. Ted is also a major funder of the Kentucky Hemp Museum, along with renowned stoner Woody Harelson, and is a well known fan of the classic stoner cartoon Scooby-Doo.




MONTELL WILLIAMS


The talk show prince discovered pot late in life, and for good reason. Back in 1999 he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and couldn’t find anything to suppress his symptoms. He tried all sorts of pain killers; none worked, and all had horrible side effects. So he decided to try medical marijuana (same thing as regular marijuana, FYI) and it worked wonders for him!




MICHAEL BLOOMBERG


...If you’re one of those idiots who believes a pothead could never amount to anything, you’d have never guessed this was the way Bloomberg would turn out. Did he smoke pot when he was younger? In his own words “You bet I did. And I enjoyed it!”




BARRY-O



Almost every American President before Barry, from Washington to Clinton to Bush, has had a pot addled past. But as far as we know, none have admitted to smoking as much pot as Obama. “When I was a kid I inhaled frequently. That was the point.” Anyone who wonders what kind of future a pothead can have should take a hard look at Barack Obama. Not only can you grow up to be ridiculously smart, you can grow up to be President.




OK, I know that's not ten, but the others I'm not too concerned with. If you are, catch the complete list here.
