Wiz Khalifa Detained At L.A. Airport For Refusing To Get Off Hoverboard


Rapper, crazy dreamer and future hoverboard entrepreneur Wiz Khalifa was arrested and briefly detained this weekend at LAX, after reefusing to disembark from his sweet ride while going through airport security. 
Khalifa is really, really, really serious when it comes to hoverboards – he’s been hovering (I guess rolling, technically) on one for a while, and insists that everyone, even the police, will be on them within a matter of months. 
A video of the incident shows him telling officials they “can’t do nothing” about his contraption, while a second shows him, moments later, on the ground under a pile of security guards and police. 
“Haven’t been slammed and cuffed in a while. That was fun,” he Tweeted after the incident, later saying that he was taking a stand for our generation by remaining on his board:
“All because I didn’t want to ditch the [technology] everyone will be using in the next 6 months. Do what you want kids. What’s even funnier than [the cops] not bein able to do shit is they’ll be riding them soon as well. Maybe ones I design. I stand for our generation and our generation is gonna be riding hover boards so if you don’t like it eat a d—!”

Fight the power.
