Smoking Marijuana In Denver

So I know that marijuana is legal in Colorado now...but what exactly does that mean? Can I smoke weed in the streets just as I could a cigarette? What about in the arena? I'm sure it's frowned upon (or even against the rules) to smoke weed in the arena. But would security really care? And I hear there are now stores where you can buy weed in Denver. Are any close to the Pepsi Arena or in the vicinity?

Two rec shops within easy walk of Pepsi Center. One is on Wynkoop, one on Wazee, 10-12 min walk. Several more shops as you go further into downtown.
Lots of info on local regs and stuff on www.thecannabist.co
No, you aren't supposed to walk around in public smoking, but they are not really going out of their way to get people in trouble (unless you are flaunting). Many use vapes in public. Normal arena discretion applies, pretty easy to do.

Those that can be trusted can change their mind.
I don't care what people smoke - but I also prefer outside venues. Oh please let it rain today

Keel in mind that smoking in public is illegal and people do get ticketed.
Also smoking of anything inside the Pepsi Center can get you tossed.

If you are someone who indulges quite a bit- a brownie that says 150 mg of THC-- take 1/4. Then be PATIENT, it takes one hour to really start to feel high. Don't wait 15 minutes and say "WTF I'm taking another bite." Maybe smoke after eating to make a bridge to feeling the effect. The high will last 2+ hours.
If you don't have THC built up too much in your system that 1/4 brownie might get you pretty ripped- but not Maureen Dowd-ripped. Take that whole brownie, you will not have a good time at the show.
I'd be interested in other opinions about the proper dosage of THC.

My last (and first "official") time with an edible - I prefer/preferred smoking it - took the recommended dose on a semi-full stomach, hit the bowl a couple times after, and I was good to GO within about 40 minutes.
I look at edibles as putting sugar, or eggs, or vanilla, into a recipe...don't want to go overboard as you can always add more, but once it's in there you can't take it out.
Just not worth feeling Dowdy (ha!).

As for all the what and how to do it since you're in CO, just treat it like any other state and you'll be fine. Don't be a moron and they won't fuck with you. Pretty simple! This isn't anyone's first concert, don't act like it is people!
