Irony, irony, irony

Mexico drug smugglers make Jesus statue out of coaiane
NUEVO LAREDO, Mexico (Reuters) - U.S. customs officials have seized a statue of Jesus Christ made from plaster mixed with cocaine -- the latest sophisticated attempt to smuggle drugs from Mexico.

Anybody think maybe the giant "Big Butter" Jesus statue north of Cincinnati on I-75 (as noted by comedian Haywood Banks) is going to be under investigation?

The Yahoo! article also tells us:
The average price of a gram of pure cocaine in the United States is around $130, according to U.S. government data.

Can you imagine "Big Butter's" street value?
