That person also had a small museum dedicated to them in Superior Wisconsin. I used to drive by it almost everyday and I always thought about how often stoners must have made a trip to “The Bong Museum” and ended up being greatly disappointed.
Also there are two major bridges that go from Duluth MN to Superior WI. One is known colloquially as the “High Bridge” (because it’s the highest) and one is the “Bong Bridge” which is named after the pilot and also is the bridge that lights up. I feel like this must have been on purpose.
