Olympics Over and The Day the Music Died

Saw this Olympic-related joke:

An American judo fighter was expelled from the Olympics for testing positive for marijuana.  Officials became suspicious when he kept stopping the match and asking “What are we fighting for man?”

Reminded me of Mick’s line in the movie Gimme Shelter when the Hells Angels were beating up on fans in front of the Altamont stage (and eventually stabbed one of them to death.)  Leads one to conclude that having the Hells Angels as your security was probably not the brightest of ideas, eh Mick?  (P.S. if you’ve never seen Gimme Shelter Youtube has it here.)
