In between drinking some beer, playing pool with Colorado's governor and meeting some guy wearing a horse head mask, President Obama visited a bar in Denver and got asked an unusual question.

"You want to hit this?" someone asked the president, apparently referring to marijuana, which the state recently legalized. Obama just laughed it off.

Here's video from Instagram user manton89, who captioned it with "Asked him if he wanted a hit of pot...he laughed!"

In his memoir "Dreams From My Father," Obama admitted to smoking weed and "maybe a little blow" in his youth. "I don't think it is more dangerous than alcohol," Obama said of marijuana, earlier this year.
