I'm attending a cannabis specific festival in August that is located in Colorado (I wish to remain anonymous on the specific event). I had a few friends plan to go with me, but unfortunately backed out. I was extremely bummed because I've never experienced anything like this and really wanted to go. My dad saw that I was bummed and said he would go with me so I wouldn't have to post pone plans. (its an event where you have to camp for the weekend and attending solo would be very hard on my wallet, because we have to drive 12 hours plus other expenses). My question here is, how would you other blades feel about attending an event much like the 710 cup or cannabis cup, with one of your parents? I understand its not awkward unless you make it awkward, but I'd be curious as how other people would react towards this. My dad does not smoke weed, but is very familiar about it and has taken a few hits here and there on my chronic. He gets super baked when he does and has stated he'll be okay with just having a beer or two since it's free along with out tickets (he doesn't drink much either, him and my mom took 10 years to go through a case of beer, just to put it in perspective).
Sounds like you should get him super blasted and show him why you love cannabis culture so much, he will have as much fun as you if hes open to it. Better than going alone right?
Oh ya for sure. He's kind of gotten a mixed view of it. Believes it should be legal and all that, but I just was involved in some a few things that i'd like to take back, which may have influenced a negative view towards it. I'm interested to see how it turns out though. Fuck it if anything we got this weird relationship atm, so maybe some father-son bonding is in order.. Gettin back to dem grassroots like them boy scouts. Out camping in the middle of the rockies with a bit-o-dope.
It sounds like you guys are gonna have an awesome time. It will make you closer for sure. If you do get him to smoke try not to get him super stoned cause you don't want it to be unpleasant for him especially by making him green out lol.
OP, it may feel weird at first, but after a few hits all will be chill. And I gotta give it up to your pops. Majority of parents, even if they know you smoke or not, would never do that. Your Dad ROCKS!
I wouldn't want to go with my dad to be honest, but if you have a close relationship with yours then go for it, sounds fun and it gives your dad something to do considering he's old and bored haha.
If your dad takes a few hits, then the setting would be chill. If you guys are close -- then go ahead, if he's a buzzkill -- then go alone and have fun.
If he knows its a bud festivle fucj it have fun Sent from my SM-G900T using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Op, your dad loves you, cares enough about you and sees that this festival August 1-3,2014 in Denver, is an important thing to you. He said, "I'll go with you." That's mega-cool in my book. Have a great time, but like someone else said, don't get him super bake. Try to find a great sativa at one of the shops to smoke with him. Get the creative, head high going.
