GREAT STAGE PARK, TN (RADIO.COM) – Finding drugs at a music festival might not seem like big news, but two men outdid themselves when they brought a veritable illegal pharmacy to this year's Bonnaroo.

Police arrested Chattanooga residents Brian Anthony Wiley, 29, and Trevor Franklin Watson III, 24, for several drug-related charges on June 9th, according to the Tennessean. Coffee County Sheriff's Office spokesman Lucky Knott said in a statement police had found "a very large amount of drugs" on the two men.

What constitutes a "very large amount of drugs" exactly?

On Wiley, deputies found:
