I'd go to the NORML site and print out all the fines --state to state-- for possession for each of the states you will be traveling through. The fines vary GREATLY. This will probably convince you and your buds to leave some of the buds behind.

Are they bringing it to sell it? You guys couldn't think of anything more creative and less illegal than weed and pipes? You have been at this plan for months and months! Selling weed at Bonnaroo will not make you cool. Most everyone there is a pot head and people will not think your friends are the cool dudes because they have weed. THE PLACE WILL BE FULL OF COOL DUDES. And you ain't such a cool dude if you're getting busted. Nothing makes you feel less cool.

AND...If you guys do get busted? I think your $300 Roo ticket will be fairly low on the list of concerns you have. Again...check the NORML site. Different states have very different penalties for varying amounts of weed. BUT... Hypothetically... you get busted in TN. You've got to spend a night or probably the weekend if you're busted on a Friday evening...they may not arraign you til Monday. Then bail. Then you have to pay $$ to a lawyer. Then you have to return to the state to go to court. Hotel fees, transportation costs, possibly missing school (depending on when they schedule your court date...) Then fines, surcharges, varying other charges they could try to tack on... a record. Yep...Bonaroo ticket...Don't want to risk that $300 Bonaroo ticket...

Just go to Bonnaroo and have a good fucking time. Sell hippie food to the hippies. Let someone else get them high and yo take care of their munchies with peanut butter and fluffernutter for $2 each. You'll clean up. Or whatever...But not large quantities of weed and maybe pipes too.

This is the only post Ill make on this matter as I think I have said PLENTY.

If you're not comfortable not saying no to your friends then sell your Roo ticket. Hit a Pearl Jam show... And then maybe go to another festival... there are lots of small cool ones. You know you're not comfortable. That is why you keep asking about this over and over and over...

Good Luck and I hope you make wise decisions. Weed? Fine. Great in fact. A bunch of 20 year old guys traveling across many states to go to Roo with quantity... "shit loads"?? these days? RISKY!

And for gods sake...don't bring the f*ing pipes AND the weed. God help you.

wow first the pipes, now the pot......as the driver, you are responsible for everything in the car.....so if they found pot in the spare tire well, YOU go to jail.....your friends, and i'm pretty sure on this, would deny knowing anything about it and let your ass go to jail.....

I take an RV to Roo (flame me all you want) and last time I was searched a total of 3 times from TN border to the Roo lot. Finally it got so funny, we started pulling out our clean check tickets from the previous cops to prove we had already been searched. You will be searched, that's a given. Now it's a matter if they find anything or not. DEFINITELY, don't smoke while driving whatever you do!
DUH! And don't bring it to sell it, I'm such an idiot-I didn't even think about people traveling with mass quantities to sell it! Everyone gets searched over and over and over!

even Rainbow Gathering when we went in '00 up in Montana was not this bad.

In fact it wasn't anything NEAR that bad.

Fucking aye.

Jeez. How is that "shitloads?"

But if you have the pipes and they spot those you know they are looking closely. Also...check that NORML site anyway.

Glad to hear you are not really bringing shitloads.

Wise move.

A half oz is nothing. Just make sure its in one bag so if you do get busted they can't pin distribution on you.

yeah for fucking real.

Honestly.
Depending on how far the drive is, id say just bring a fucking eighth and some papers, and BRING MORE CASH. Smoke the joints before you get anywhere near the show.

Like plenty have said,
if you're not a brick, you can move around at the show and find someone to buy a bag off of.

Hows that sound?

SPEEDY MCCREADY

possession of a half oz. in tennesse.....misdemeanor....could land you in jail for a year.....and a max fine of $2500....

SELLING that half oz........is now a FELONY....could land you in jail for 1-6 years.....

and remember all the nice people here who told you that..."a half oz. is nothing"...

when Mr. policeman handcuffs you...throws you into the wagon...drags your ass to jail....fingerprints you....throws you in a cell....and then says that will be $1000 fine....

and that $1000 you obviously dont have...or you wouldnt be selling drugs and pipes at bonnaroo to "make some extra cash"...

and then when you go to get your vehicle....that has now been impounded...

and the gentleman says "that will be $500 to get your vehicle back"....

again...think of the nice people here who said "a half oz. is nothing....

While I have no problem, in general, with people smoking weed, I dont understand the need for people to "enhance" their concert experience by getting wasted or getting so stoned they cant think straight.

If I was going to see Pink Floyd, maybe I would think differently. But its Pearl Jam.

I dont think smoking a bowl then listening to Comatose and Spin the Black Circle would be my experience of choice. Maybe 3 coffees and 2 Mountain Dews, but not pot.

But either way, nothing is worth driving across state lines with illegal drugs and obvious friends.

I used to love potheads who dressed like potheads, smelled like potheads, looked like potheads, talked like potheads, and smoked in front of people, then wondered why they were paranoid. Dont be a dumbass.

they obviously aren't selling with only a half oz, yo.
c'mon, now.


I agree with this.
I guess.

I stand by my statement:
take an eighth, smoke it before you get near TN.
Deal with the 30 minutes or hour coming down.
Buy more when you get there.
