To get the 2012 Olympics, London had to win a seven-year bidding process, spend billions, and somehow convince the IOC that, unlike in '48, it wouldn't just rain the whole time. Now, without lying much, some Dallasites are putting on an exhibition that'll burn through even more green: The 420 Olympics.

A totally worthwhile project from Whackbat Media, the event nicknamed "The Great Smoke Off" will pit fiending foes against each other for "stoner supremacy" in a thrilling multi-level competition that Whackbat's turning into a film short enough for the attention span of anyone who finds this kind of stuff hilarious. The challenges are as difficult for the stoned as they are not-difficult for the not-stoned: create the ultimate snack from five random kitchen items; desperately try to find a lost set of keys; even take a phone call from their moms "really super high", with the loser being the first one to cry.

To help with filming/editing/other, Whackbat's running a Kickstarter with sweet donor perks: from a copy of the DVD, to your picture in a montage in the DVD, to you actually participating in the games and acting in the film (seriously!), to a seat next to the guys "at any film festival we are accepted into". They're only seeking $400 total, so if you want in, go ahead and make it rain.
