A Florida couple were arrested recently for selling "Golden Tickets To Heaven" for $99.99 each. Tito and Amanda Watts told buyers that the tickets were made from solid gold and reserved the holder a place in heaven.
“People can sell tickets to heaven,” a Jacksonville police spokesman said. “But the Watts misrepresented their product. The tickets were just wood spray painted gold with ‘Ticket To Heaven – Admit One’ written in marker. You can’t sell something as gold when it’s not. That’s where the Watts crossed the line into doing something illegal.”
Amanda Watts said in her police statement: We just wanted to leave earth and go to space and smoke rock cocaine. I didn’t do nothing. Tito sold the golden tickets to heaven. I just watched.
Police said they confiscated over $10,000 in cash, five crack pipes and a baby alligator.
