LAFAYETTE, La. -
Wille Nelson and four others were issued misdemeanor citations for possession of narcotic mushrooms and marijuana after a traffic stop Monday morning on a Louisiana highway, state police said.

Nelson's publicist, Elaine Shock, declined immediate comment
Also cited were Tony Sizemore, 59, of St. Cloud, Fla.; Bobbie Nelson, 75, of Briarcliff, Texas; Gates Moore, 54, of Austin, Texas; and David Anderson, 50, of Dallas.

Willie Nelson and several members of his band were cited for drug possession in Louisiana early Monday.

Troopers stopped the singer's bus in Saint Martin Parish, the Associated Press reports. According to trooper Willie Williams, they smelled a strong odor of marijuana when the driver opened the door.

Williams said troopers searched the vehicle and found approximately 1 1/2 pounds of marijuana and about 2/10 of a pound of mushrooms.

Nelson, 73, and Tony Sizemore, 59, Bobbie Nelson, 75, Gates Moore, 54, and David Anderson, 50, were issued misdemeanor citations for possession of mushrooms and marijuana and then released.

Next up, Nelson will perform at Farm Aid 2006 on Sept. 30 in Camden, N.J.

That traffic incident occurred slightly southeast of Lafayette in a colorful little area named Breaux Bridge (former Senator John Breaux's family comes from the area) that's the site of all sorts of interesting transportation adventures since several highways converge right there. A little green of a slightly different type than Willie and his crew were ticketed for turns felonies into misdemeanors down there just like magic. Laissez les bon temps rouler!

I love Willie!

That being said anyone of us would be Thunderdick's new girlfriend in County jail given the same situation.

I love Willie, too. But truly, even non celebrities often can get off easily down there, too, if they are carrying enough cash to be persuasive.

dude its nto liek ti matters to him, im sure right after he got back from the cop shop he blazed up, hes rich, he was probably just liek damn man we got to find some more weed now hhahaha or soemthin like that
