Now that marijuana is legal in Washington D.C., the effects of it -- meaning the “munchies” -- could help drive more customers into SpinFire Pizza, which is owned by Washington Redskins’ wide receiver Pierre Garcon.

Reporters with TMZ Sports caught up with Garcon walking on the streets of D.C. and asked him if he is happy with the new legalization and what it means for his pizza business. Garcon, who appeared to be entertained by the conversation, happily answered with this:

"Hopefully, it helps my business, but hopefully, not too many people get in trouble with the marijuana in the league."

The brief interview Garcon gave to the reporter can be seen here for those who want to get the full scoop.

The reporter also mentioned Garcon’s competition in Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning, who owns 21 Papa John’s franchises. Garcon said he is working hard to get to Manning’s level, but he has some work left to do.

Garcon also claimed he would love for President Barack Obama to stop by SpinFire Pizza and that he would have him in and out in 90 seconds.
