A Pro-Cannabis Prankster Has Seriously Altered LA's 'Hollywood' Sign

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that at some point in your life you've caught a glimpse of the 'Hollywood' sign in Los Angeles. Well, for a few hours yesterday it looked very different.

Police are on the look-out for a prankster who vandalised the sign in the early hours of Sunday morning, changing it to read 'Hollyweed.'

We're assume they are celebrating the legalisation of cannabis (in a vote passed on the same day as the presidential election) rather than advocating the rights of nettles and thistles. Especially given the 'O's were altered with a peace sign and heart on a black background.

In fact it's not the first time this has happened. In 1976, Daniel Finegood did the same.

Everything is a sequel these days.
