Funny weird Weed stories- post em here

Lets hear some weird, fun and wacky stories!

Here’s one of my Faves:

Getting my legal medical Card in Hawaii circa 2014

This was around the start of medical legalization

I wanted to get a med card so I could legally grow. There were no legal dispensaries yet at this time.

I get info about seeing a Doctor to get a Med card with an address and a Time

We drive out to a very remote location on Oahu East side - Id never been to this area.

We make it to the backwoods and see signs that were pretty odd. A lot of sovereign land signs, no trespassing, surveillance signs etc…

We realize as we pull up to this shed with dogs and Chickens running around that we are on Hawaiian Sovereign land. Ok cool

I walk into a Room with about 20 people there for the same reason. Everyone felt awkward . Nobody spoke or said anything. I think other people were also a little bewildered at what this place was.

We had to fill out a huge pamphlet and one by one we were called into another room.

After 2 hrs of waiting I get called in waiting to see the Doctor.

I walk in the room and its just a screen. Nowadays zoom appointments are common but back in those days they were not.

I felt like I was meeting with The wizard of Oz

I waited 10 mins looking at the screen as I was instructed it might be a minute

The guy finally came on and asked the standard questions

He wanted to know specifically how I would get my cannabis

I told him I would grow it. He then gave me some basic growing instructions

I left with my First Med card . Haha :smile: wild . My first and only time on Sovereign land.

My guess is The Doctor figured there was no way he could get arrested.

We changed from paper money to plastic bills some years ago. I was out looking for a 20 bag and ran into some punks who tried to get me to go into the alley with a dozen of them. I refused. We did the deal out in the open and I handed him a brand new, stilll not very common, plastic $20 bill. 5 minutes later he comes chasing me down the street telling me it’s counterfeit. I told him it’s not and to go buy a pack of cigarettes with it if he didn’t believe me. It was almost a fight which I would certainly have lost because there were a lot of them.

Drug dealers don’t know what money looks like.

I recall my ‘WTF is that?’ response when I first saw a plastic bill. :smile:

By the time I got me med card in CA, the scene had become a full on circus. Along the boardwalk in Venice there were ‘gangs’ of young girls dressed in skimpy nurse outfits more suited for Halloween than a clinic, carrying green cross signs urging people to sign up for their med card. That kind of stuff was everywhere.
So when I went to the doc to get a med card, I was expecting a total BS just check the boxes and say you have a headache or stress and bang, med card.
What I got was a doctor that was full on legit and a 100% believer in the medical value of the plant. He seemed almost excited when I told him about my back pain, because then he spent probably 15 minutes going over cannabanoids and terpenes and different form factors available other than just flower.
Then he pulled out a vape cart and hit the thing right there in his office in front of us!
He got my card renewal business every year.
