Dogs of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection sniffed out three creative attempts to bring marijuana into the U.S. last Friday. At 4:45 p.m. a Mexican citizen tried to bring in 185 pounds of pot hidden in auto tires. Then the alliteration started. At 6:15 p.m., a Mexican citizen with a tractor-trailer was found to have 2243 pounds concealed in a shipment of clay pots -- pot in pots, so to speak. At 7:45 p.m., a Mexican citizen came in with a truck supposedly filled with peppers on pallets. You guessed it: pot in the pepper pallets -- 100 pounds worth. In each case, the vehicles were seized.
