Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival

A New York man attending the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival in Manchester, Tenn., was caught with more than 1,000 fake drugs.

The Tennessean reports David E. Brady, 45, was approached after officers saw him with what looked like narcotics in one of the festival tents. Brady threw the items behind him, and when he stood up, officers could see a bag of mushrooms hanging from his waist band.
