As states roll out fully recreational marijuana and over 50% of the population have access to legal products, people see it as part of their buzz mix.  Gen Z and others are drifting from alcohol and are looking at weed. California sober has become a thing, but you want ot thoughtful before you pull out a big blunt. In Ohio, is is a misdemeanor to consume in public, and while accepted, the plant’s odor can annoy those around you – and bring attention to your use.

Tailgating is a time honored game tradition. While most stop off a bar/restaurant to grab a bite or a pre-drink, others go for full classic. Classic tailgate parties in the parking lot are big deals, especially at some colleges. Full on bbqs, full bars and catered meals can be seen and smelled. But if you want to consume, you might want to be a little discreet and consider a THC or hemp beverage.

Most games have some underage attendees, so smell can be annoying to some parents. The guy drunk on beer can be forgiven publicly more often than the stoned guy who has a skunk smell. Consider using a vape, gummy or oil for the day.  Vapes can provide a quick hit which takes effect within 5-10 minutes and you can manage the buzz during all 4 quarters. Oils also hit quickly, but are a little bit more difficult to manage the high, but experienced consumers know how to ride the wave.

Gummies are very common with roughly. 49% of people who consume trying one.  While Wana Brands has a fast acting gummy, but take from 30-60 minutes to hit, so you can manage your high as you arrive and throughout the game. All of these options should be allowed through security without a problem.

Hopefully you can chill out and enjoy a big win for your favorite team next time you attend.
