HOLLYWEED: Vandal changed Hollywood sign in celebration

While others were ringing in the New Year, some prankster was celebrating the legalisation of Marijuana in California.

Over the course of New Year’s Eve into New Year ’s Day, someone trespassed down to the iconic Hollywood sign and changed it to Hollyweed.

The law was passed to legalise recreational use of the drug on November 8.
