Take it easy. Photo: Images Press/Getty Images On March 31, New York became the 15th state to legalize recreational marijuana after a yearslong campaign to decriminalize the drug. The NYPD has instructed officers not to stop and arrest people if they see them smoking pot in public. New “No smoking of any kind” signs have sprouted along with daffodils and hyacinths along the boundaries of Bryant Park and Herald Square Park. But New Yorkers can’t rush out and buy a few spliffs at a neighborhood dispensary just yet. And weed dealers who want to scale up and go legit could wait more than a year to get a license.

The deal is contingent on Bruce passing a physical.
