Someone Changed The Hollywood Sign So It Reads ‘Hollyweed’
2017 is going to be a great year… you know why? Because someone already pulled off the best prank of 2017 in the first 24 hours of it.

A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department’s Hollywood Division told ABC that the agency “was aware of the vandalism and a unit was dispatched to Mount Lee to investigate.”
People are loving it all over Twitter, with loads of pictures going up before it’s presumably taken down within the next couple of hours.

Funnily enough, someone pulled the same prank back on January 1, 1976. Surely this is a little coincidental? Could it be a publicity stunt? Or were some people high and just fancied a laugh? Either way, it’s fucking brilliant.
