Lebowski Fest founder busted smoking weed at bowling alley. [View all]

Because of course he was.





The organiser of an event that celebrates all things related to the classic stoner film The Big Lebowski has been arrested on suspicion of smoking marijuana in a bowling alley car-park.

Will Russell was detained outside the Lebowski Fest in Louisville, Kentucky, by police who said he was “not acting normal” in a scene reminiscent of the Coen brothers cemedy.

Russell runs the festival for fans of the 1998 movie, whose protagonist, played by Jeff Bridges, loves bowling, pot, and White Russians and is assaulted by the police.

An arrest report posted online by city police said that Mr Russell, who was with an unnamed co-defendant, took “a bladed stance” and then moved towards officers “with a clinched fist displaying threatening behaviour”.
