President Barack Obama was asked by an unknown individual if he wanted a "hit of pot" Tuesday night, while visiting a Denver, Colorado bar.
The incident, captured on video, shows the president laughing off the suggestion.
"Asked him if he wanted a hit of pot...he laughed!" the Instagram user wrote for the video's caption.
Obama previously admitted in his 1995 memoir, "Dreams From My Father," that he used marijuana and "maybe a little blow" during his youth.
The question capped off an evening in which the president also made waves on the Internet for shaking hands with a man donned in a horse mask and fist bumping a gorilla statue.
According to the pool report, “One onlooker wore a large horse head.”
"It's unclear what message he hoped to convey to the president," it added.
