This game, appropriately, is where I learned there was such a thing as uppers and downers.

It’s likely they were trying to get the news riled up so they could cause a moral outrage that would attract attention to the game.

All right I'll ask the dumb question here, what am I looking at? From what I can tell they are tiny empty bags

Those type of bags are usually used to hold illicit substances, and typically only bought by small-time drug dealers.

board game baggies usually have a tiny hole in them, to let the air out when you're packing the game away. not so great if you're muleing some molly to your weekly game of Wingspan
