WHO WE ARE…WE’RE GENTLEMEN SMUGGLERS:

Barry "Flash" Foy and his legendary crew of smugglers built a cannabis empire on the East Coast in the 70’s and 80’s. Fun-loving and nonviolent, they became known to the media, and to the agents that pursued them, as the Gentlemen Smugglers. It was an epic chase that cost them their freedom and cemented their legacy.

Would they do it again? Heck yeah! (This time legally).
