Pot business booming for shops in path of solar eclipse
(FOX 11) - The marijuana business is booming in advance of Monday's eclipse.
Experts say Madras, Oregon will be one of the best spots in the country to view the total solar eclipse.
And that's good news for the local pot shops where it's legal to buy marijuana as long as you're over the age of twenty-one.
'Central Organics' says it's seen five times more business than usual.
With the expected amount of tourists 'Central Organics' did bring in armed security guards to ensure everyone's safety.
And we're told people from all over the world have stopped in.
Madras is smack-dab in the middle of the path of totality where viewers will see the sun completely obscured at 10:21 a.m. on Monday.
