Early on in the 1980's before pot smugglers were assembled, Petey was learning the ropes with his original crew. The main product they were moving and selling at the time was Columbian Gold, which while it was better quality than the pot coming out of Mexico, it was nowhere as good as the premium herb that was being grown in Jamica. Always looking to have a leg up on the competition, Petey was trying to find an open door to this exquisite marijuana market.
