Too much cannabis at the Las Vegas convention

There are hundreds of conventions held in Las Vegas every year, maybe even thousands.

People from all walks of life come here to hold their major industry gathering and trade shows.

There is one particular section of the city where the bigger conventions are held, but I don’t want to talk about those. Those are the ones where AC techs and sales reps meet to exchange business cards, and I find it boring. I like the fringe conventions, where the nerds and the geeks hang out, because Las Vegas has those, too. One nagging issue I face as a security guard at these shows is the use of cannabis. In Las Vegas cannabis is perfectly legal, there is no issue with that. However, state and federal laws say that cannabis cannot be smoked in enclosed spaces like our convention hall. It’s fine to buy cannabis in Las Vegas, but you can’t light up indoors. One of my jobs is always to make people put out their cannabis joints, or to take them outside. Sometimes I even have to escort people out, which I try not to do because tourists are the lifeblood of Las Vegas. Without the billions of tourism dollars that pour into the city every year, Las Vegas would be just another sleepy town in the Nevada desert. Still, the law is the law, so if there is too much cannabis being smoked I have to kick people out. In the normal, boring type of Las Vegas industry conventions there isn’t so much trouble with people smoking cannabis.

There are so many neat places to eat in Portland

Once upon a time I was a journalist & writer for the local newspaper, the newspaper shut down permanently 11 years ago, & for a while I was aimless, however writing & doing reviews was my passion, so getting some random office job left me a little depressed.

  • Thankfully I discovered the internet community of food bloggers soon after, then before long I was writing, & even recording videos, about my reviews of the best places to eat in Portland.

This sleepy neighborhood is not well known for its cuisine, however that doesn’t mean there aren’t some amazing eateries to be found. The latest, & greatest, place to eat in Portland is a cannabis cafe. This was the first time I had ever been inside a cannabis cafe, so I was really gleeful for it… Portland is world famous for its locally grown cannabis strains, so it may surprise you to hear I haven’t indulged too often, but i like cannabis, however it’s not something I can use every afternoon. The chance to have a high end 5-course meal where every dish is infused with cannabis sounded really tempting. I took an Uber to downtown Portland, under the assumption I would be far too stoned to drive by the end of the meal. In addition to using locally sourced cannabis products, the cafe also used meat, herbs, & vegetables from the Portland area. This was a farm-to-table experience like I have never experienced before in Portland. In addition to the food being delicious, it was also so jam-packed with cannabis that I don’t remember how I got apartment that evening.
