If I smell pot in the crowd, it doesn't bother me.
You don't get high from second hand pot smoke, and it would never be dense enough to choke on, unlike the cigarette smoke in the club era after we left arenas in the 80's.

As somebody who has enjoyed some weed once in a while and definitely don’t have any problems with it, there definitely is a time and a place, and being in a crowd at a show isn’t the time and the place. It’s inconsiderate IMO. Do that shit before the show or after, not in a sea of people who can’t exactly walk away from you if they don’t like it.
It’s like people who vape around other people and let that giant cloud of smoke go in front of you. My old band’s keyboard player had a boyfriend who kept doing that during practice, which was in a relatively small basement. I asked him to stop repeatedly and the also drunk stooge kept doing it so I told him I’d break my guitar over his head if he didn’t take it outside. He took it outside lol.

The last time I saw Iron Maiden, they were so bad, I WISH I had some drugs:-) (maybe it was where I was sitting. Prolly where those pot smokers were...) I am on CURT, the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas. The Litany of Rx Formulary Drugs CURT replaced should be embarrassing to my Neurologist, but I bet he isn't. EAT IT!

I have say to it was noticeable in NYC in Sept. 3 years ago you didn't smell it much anywhere. Bit this time smelling it on every street corner and it was usually mixed with tobacco, I found it really unpleasant. I used to enjoy the odd smoke in my "younger" days and certainly have no issues, its just the smell of it everywhere was too much

Today's believe it or not:
I've never taken even one hit. A number of reasons:
1. I was allergic to smoke in general, especially cigarette smoke.
2. I never liked not being in control.
3. I was basically anti-social when I was young. If something was "popular" with people my age I basically went the other direction in a lot of cases - unless it really made sense to me. There were other ways to cause and get into trouble :)
4. In HS a number of my friends were about 4 years older. Several other HS classmates of mine were friends with the same people. On of our older friends was an alcoholic - big time. I saw what a complete disaster he made of his life even though he was extremely smart. Rumor was that he easily passed his LSAT but got "turned down" from law school because they knew his history. He wrecked several cars. He called me at 2 AM one morning, he had totaled out a police car. On and on. That sank in really hard. Oddly, or not, none of us that hung around with him ever drank or smoked anything, at least while I knew them well. Excluding a few of the guys having some wine or stuff when they were older.
5. I WOULD HAVE LOST MY JOB, OR NEVER GOTTEN IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
For those of you here that did smoke in your younger days, don't worry, it doesn't bother me at all. I was officially told that I was an exception to the rule and a very small part of the population of people my age.

Today's believe it or not: I've never taken even one hit. Nothing hard to believe about it. It ain’t for everybody. I’ve done…. quite a few different substances throughout my 20s. Weed, coke, shrooms, DMT, etc. Now I’m in my late 30s and I don’t have the time, money, nor inclination to deal with that stuff. I barely even drink anymore. There was always a lot of pressure to do what everybody else was doing to fit in. I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with drugs, but I have no patience for people who make it their entire identity. I don’t have patience for many things anymore LOL

Well with over 530 people in my HS graduating class it was pretty easy for me to fit in "somewhere" without having to do anything special to hang out with various groups. I have it on "good authority" that drugs were not really a thing in my HS when I was there. Never smelled MJ at school. Alcohol - different story there, but off campus. I college I was a "town student" (not in the dorms) and a lot of us were on scholarships and working part time. I never really hung around school at night so I don't know what all went on in the dorms. Never heard much about drugs there, but who knows. I never tried to fit in with the dorm crowd. Most of them were in a TOTALLY different financial situation if you know what I mean.

I have a very conservative aunt and uncle, who went to see Willie Nelson one time. All they could talk about was how disgusting it was that he smoked a joint on stage. My wife uses for pain, so she tells me.

My state thought it would be a good idea to decriminalize heroin and meth and boy oh boy that went well. 🤪

Eat onions and garlic - this is the best thing you can do. Perhaps this is just the decision that will allow you to make yourself much more resilient. I think that there is always a result that you want to achieve. And if for you this goal is a strong organism, then I advise you to read here to start understanding more. This is so important when a person can start taking such a tool.
