As states legalize marijuana for recreational use and over 50% of the population has access to legal products, people see it as part of their buzz mix. Generation Z and others are turning away from alcohol and getting interested in weed. In California, sober marijuana is a trend, but you should think twice before pulling out a big joint. In Ohio, using it in public is a misdemeanor, and while it's accepted, the smell of the plant can bother those around you – and draw attention to your use.

Tailgating is a time-honored gaming tradition. While most stop at a bar or restaurant for a bite to eat or a pre-drink fix, others opt for the classic program. Classic tailgate parties in the parking lot are a big deal, especially at some colleges. Extensive barbecues, fully stocked bars, and catered meals are all to see and smell. But if you plan on consuming, you might want to be a little more discreet and consider a THC or hemp-infused beverage.

Most games also have underage spectators, so the smell can be a nuisance to some parents. The beer drinker is more likely to be forgiven in public than the stoned guy who smells like a skunk. Consider using an e-cigarette, gummy, or oil product throughout the day. E-cigarettes can provide a quick hit that kicks in within 5-10 minutes, and you can maintain the high for all 4 quarters. Oils also work quickly, but it's a little harder to control the high, but experienced users know how to ride the wave.

Hopefully you can relax and celebrate a big win for your favorite team on your next visit.
