All the Smugglers Needed Was Pamela Anderson

Baywatch fiction becomes reality. No, not the augmented “character development,” the episode in which a surfboard belonging to a character named Jimmy Slade (played by Kelly Slater) is used to smuggle. Now three Italian fans of Baywatch (just our guess) were caught in Spain trying to traffic over 100 pounds of cocaine inside surfboards. Apparently the cops in the Basque region where the smugglers were nabbed were made suspicious by the funkily shaped boards and their crappy paint jobs. We’re pretty sure the creative minds behind Baywatch would’ve done better in the, er, cosmetic surgery department.
