Rapper Fabolous' tour bus got pulled over in Arkansas and cops found 500 pounds of weed. Good thing Fab wasn't on the bus. However, the two drivers were quick to identify who they were driving for and to say the stuff didn't belong to them. Too bad the drivers stories didn't match. One said they were driving to Atlanta to pick up a rapper [who he couldn't name] while the other claimed they were driving to Boston to meet Fab who had flown on ahead from NBA All Star weekened in Phoenix.

Wouldn't a more loving and concerned husband have waited and flown back with his wife? I'm just saying.
