Former Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo said he will honor his bet and smoke marijuana.

"Look, I made a bet … that if Amendment 64 [legalizing marijuana] passed … that I would smoke pot," Mr. Tancredo said, in a press statement. "I will therefore smoke pot under circumstances [that] are legal under Colorado law."
