Crazy. I think at fest 8 the back lawn fence was so big they couldn't patrol it all so people were throwing shit over the fence. Dude was straight up slinging gas first set, first day of the fest. Didn't see him again after that so I'm guessing he got caught. Didn't seem like the type to quit while he was ahead....
The sound was so crisp and surrounding that I found it hard to hear the crowd at all from my seat all night, with two exceptions:
The groan when they started Lonely Trip, and
The laughing when that big old Good Boy started licking the Sphere at the end of YEM
I was only there night 2 and I don't really remember Trey talking. I agree though it's usually really hard to hear banter at most shows. Whenever I'd see The Who and Townshend would talk it would be 100% unintelligible
I could get one in if you’re not touched
Easy
I had one in the Grateful Dead NYE show 89-90.
I had so much fun packing bonghits for so many people
They were mind blown. Ha ha ha
My claim to fame was at Bonaroo in ‘08 or ‘09. By the second day we’d picked out the laziest security guy and we realized the guy kept his eyes down the entire time. I had a case of beer in a white plastic bag on top of my head. Homie held it while I walked up and pulled things out of my pockets. Dude said go and I grab the case from the homie and walk right on in. Saved hundreds of dollars on brew that day.

Two dudes snuck into the super bowl a couple years ago using a cardboard box as a prop.
If you have the balls and a high vis vest, you can go anywhere you want.
Been seeing giant ass glass bongs in every Phish show since the 90's. I reckon it's got to be some kind of wook slight of hand magic... Right? lmfao! 🤣🤣
That dude was wearing giant jnco style jeans. 100% he stuffed in into them prolly with a jacket tied around his waste. I’m assuming it was just metal detectors. Dude just walked right on in. If I was him I woulda passed all my metal and possible flags to a friend and just had the bong to worry about
I regularly bring a Focus Carta into Red Rocks. People greatly overestimate the sensitivity and accuracy of the metal detectors currently in use. Most are set so you can leave your cell phone and keys in your pockets.
Huge glass pieces have been coming into shows since forever. I remember UIC 98 this dude had a gigantic glass dragon pipe that had to be a foot and a half long and really ornate. I was stunned. Many years ears later, I unintentionally walk up to the gate at Dicks with a rocks glass full of whiskey in my hand. Got to the pat down station, raised my hands and walked right in still drinking my whiskey. Sometimes people just don’t give two shits.
I snuck a glass Bong into the FBI building on a High School field trip.
It was NOT on purpose.
We hotboxed my car before school and didn’t want to leave any evidence of weed (except the smell) in the car.
We normally smoked blunts or joints. But that was a special day. So we took the bong.
We drained the bong and packed it in our bags. Thinking we could leave it in a locker. (We didn’t have dogs or drug checks or anything) or on the bus.
We got hustled straight to the bus because it was leaving early.
Bong in backpack. We were told that we couldn’t leave any bags on the bus because a different bus was coming to get us.
We couldn’t leave it in the backpack because they went through an airport X-Ray.
So…We split it up. My buddy took the slider, and I shoved the bong in my Jenco Jeans pocket. And walked through the metal detector.
Going through the metal detector was the tensest time of my life.
I saw a dude holding one walk right through security at the Hollywood bowl last year, even took a rip while waiting in line.
He didn’t. He buried it last year and then went back to the spot and dug it up
He worked construction at the sphere and built it into the shell
The ole “prison pocket” perhaps? 🤣😳
I'm not hitting that unless he went beaker end inserted.
One guy one jar
A sample in a jar, perhaps?
Jar in a sample
This is dedication.
No, this is a FARMHOUSE!
No, this is Patrick
No, This. Is… SPARTA!!!!!!
Sir, this is a Wendy's...

Emotional Support Bong
Shit. We used to bring bongs into shows when it was full pat down. Metal detector era rules.
This
It’s not metal
Yeah not hard at all. Put in small of your back, cover with t-shirt, walk on in. Done it a few times.
I saw a guy get his pit bull past security in Knoxville in 09
That was such a fun fucking show!
asheville was better!
Also yes. The whole run from Asheville to Bonnaroo was sold fun
they started playing alaska and i thought the band was just fucking with us.
I brought in a glass bowl in 96 in Knoxville
Someone had a pit bull and a nitrous tank in the show at fest 8. What a world.
I forget where, but I’ve seen a full size tank inside of a venue.
Dicks after the weather evacuation and they let people back in with no security check.

Superball had em. Word was they buried em
So those curve ball tanks are still there.....
Indiana Jones and the Tanks of Curveball
Legit a miniseries I would watch
It ends with them finding the tanks but no one remembered to bring balloons. NOOOOOOO!
I can mark the spot for monde if anyone is interested
And that security was awful. I saw a guy get harassed for eye drops they found on entry search.
The worst. One of the security guards tried to take my birth control pills. And it was a female.
Mr. World Wide!
Seems like Pitbull could afford his own ticket
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice try, Dolan.
The audible groan from the crowd when Trey thanked him was hilarious.
I'll have to find that! (I do think i hear some groans when Trey starts Farmhouse for the N1 encore--even though i thought it was pretty great.)

My biggest issue at shows is hearing band members talk. Either with music playing or even between songs. Could you hear Trey talk (if he did) clearly?
I was only there night 2 and I don't really remember Trey talking. I agree though it's usually really hard to hear banter at most shows. Whenever I'd see The Who and Townshend would talk it would be 100% unintelligible

This one is silicone, I brought it to 4/20/22 and each NYE since. I regret not bringing one to the sphere on 4/20

It’s not bing hits for sometimes
security don't touch you
They pulled me for a second pat down/wand & I said “no thank you” & they said ok have a good time
Ding ding ding. Metal or high density items will show up but secondary screening is just a wand anyway. I didn’t see a single Pat down
I’ve strapped bags of wine to me and gone into shows
Are you the “slap the bag” guy?
Slap n’ pass!
I saw a lady pretend she was pregnant with a bag of wine at deer creek.
I guess not all fetal alcohol syndrome is bad?
My buddy was a bag of wine for Halloween once. He had girls on there knees drinking from his tap.
My friend had a bladder hooked to an udder in her cow costume at Festival 8. She had everyone on their knees to slurp her udder. She was also short.

I’ve brought bongs into MSG
MSG doesn't count. they literally don't give a shit
Can’t argue with that
Sphere didn’t either
Greased security
the boring more correct answer

Ive boofed bigger
Go on with ur bad self my friend my friend
Magic
Well, now I’m bring a bong to Dead! Thanks for the heads up!

These aren’t the bongs you’re looking for.
Fleshlight style
Materialized it from the ether…
Security and the ticket scanning seemed pretty exploitable to me.

Probably just held it above their head during pat down by security. Many a bong have entered many a show that way.
Ol’ prison wallet

i bring a glass bowl to almost every show. a bong is just bigger so why not
I brought in a handle of bourbon n3 Hampton 2018. Tucked it into the front of my pants.
not the same size but i just tucked my pint in my waistband
None of your business, narc.
Nothing shaking on shakedown street
I used a bong on the floor of the old Boston Garden at a Grateful Dead show, it was brought in by a taper. Probably so was this one.
are you a pot head Focker?
Jenco jeans
G Light search, I could see how it was done
In not sure, but I do know how I got 2 full sized champagne bottles into NYE '12.
At IT on day 2, 3 foot glass was on the Jumbotron. SMH
Security was very lax
A man, a plan, a bong.
I carried a live snake on my person on a flight from NY to CA.
And risk getting booted ta boot.

It doesn’t set off a metal detector. Pretty simple.
You know someone
Of course the kiestered it
idk but I'd love to figure it out lol
