If there's one thing Willie Nelson is known for besides his music, it's his love of marijuana.

The country star has long held his title as one of the nation's most notorious stoners, advocating for legalization and claiming that the drug saved his life. He has also been arrested for possession multiple times, including a brush with the law in 2010 in which authorities discovered six ounces of the green stuff on his tour bus during a checkpoint search, per ABC News. Snoop Dogg even claimed that Nelson "is the only person who's ever out-smoked Snoop Dogg" in an interview with Jimmy Kimmel.

But his most shocking anecdote is probably the time that he smoked on the roof of the White House. As Nelson confirmed to GQ, he had been invited by then-President Jimmy Carter, and his alleged accomplice on the rooftop was Chip Carter, the president's middle son. "Think it's time to burn one, Willie, if you don't object," Chip reportedly told him. "Think it's cool?" Nelson asked, to which his companion replied, "If it wasn't, I wouldn't be offering."

"It seemed like the thing to do. We were there, and there it was, and uh...why not, you know? And they have a great view from the roof," the singer told GQ.
