I had to get an account and post these pics when my uncle showed me this shroom today. Ive never seen anything like it in my life. I would have never believed it unless my uncle showed me. You can see the size of this thing is quite large. After some investigation I found it to be a Giant Puffball mushroom. Anyway, it weighs in at a whopping 15 POUNDS!!! Wouldnt it be nice if that thing was psychoactive!?! We found a second one close to this one but left it to see if it will get any bigger. The other one is at least 12 pounds.

Cool, slice it up and BBQ that shit! (if it is still completely white on the inside)
Most people blank out their license plates when they post pictures here, but if you don't care then thats fine too.

I don't think I'll be eating it. The inside is a little grey so I think it's past it's prime. I don't dare cut into it. It's absolutely amazing. I actually poked my thumb in it on accident when I picked it up. The skin is pretty soft and spongy. As for everyone else: Not my car, not too worried, not in the military, and definitely NOT a cop.
