We were smoking a joint during Glitch Mob and a gal from Live Nation came over and asked just as politely as you please, "Would you please put that out?". She didn't even take it away. We put it out and smoked it later; it was the coolest thing. I wanted to be like, "THANK YOU!!", but I didn't want to push my luck. That was the only "enforcement" we had to deal with all weekend (and I was smoking CONSTANTLY and giving away joints like they were candy).

Ah, I thought it was rather polite of her, to be honest. She could have taken my seaweed for processing  . Note that I didn't mention those times I was completely inebriated-- noone messed with me then. Smiles all around! |

Seriously, she was just so nice and matter of fact about it. I said, "yes!" and put it out immediately. |

Thats just like the security guard who found my whole stash in my cigarette box and said "Just keep it put away" and gave it all back to me. I almost hugged the guy I was so freaking happy.

Honestly, the spectrum of security enforcement there is insane. Hard to believe they all go through the same training.

Some little lady in a live nation uniform saw me leaning on my boyfriend while sitting in the grass outside of Washed Out and said "I'm just going to ask you once to put it away." Woman, I don't even smoke pot. She didn't believe me. She thought my bag of Kombu (dried seaweed) that I was eating was weed. The only person 100% sober while people were rolling around like animals in the grass around me and she decides to ask me about my imaginary drugs. A+ I can't imagine sitting under the blazing sun at the Gorge and nibbling on kombu... |

On monday I was smoking weed out of my pipe and a security guard came and took it away. My friend snuck some vodka in the festival in a partly crushed plastic water bottle. He was watching jail and it was in his back pocket. He wasn't drinking it or any thing and it looked totally like water. A beverage enforcement person came up and asked him what it was. He said water and then they grabbed it and made him leave the festival for the rest of the day. It was total bullshit. Only because it was it little crushed did they have any idea that it wasn't water. I could have gotten him back in, but he was to afraid, because the sherif said if anyone saw him again he would be fined a few thousand dollars for trespassing.

I think it is always going to be harder when you look young. I look like I am well past drinking age so I never get hassled.

yeah I can't imagine eating seaweed at sasquatch either- but while there I live off a diet of chicken strips while at teh venue, and bagels with cream cheese at the campsite. And tons of High Life.

The security lady in the front felt my friends pipe in his sweater when she was handing it back to him and asked what it was. When he didn't reply she just gave him the sweater and said, "just take it and go".
Although when I was walking down the line I got stopped for my bottle of Emergen-C and when the woman smelled it she said, "this is alcohol". I told her it wasn't and that it was just vitamin C and she said, "really?" and just handed it back. Weird but whatever.
They were pretty nice to me whenever i went through. It probably helps that I look super young and innocent.

The lady checking my bag on Monday took one look at my giant inflatable shark, laughed, and cleared me through. I would like to hug that lady for being so cool.

We came through with unicorn horns and several canisters of glowsticks and the lady just commented that it looked like we were going to have fun.
