While I value my life too much to jump on board with this, I have to give them props for coming up with something rather original.

However I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out they are running drugs around the city using the tour as a cover, if so, bonus points for thinking outside the box.

I'm still on the fence on this one. On one hand, kudos for being creative. On the other, how safe is it really, especially when they require wavers?
