FYI one year during a rain out at E-Town I walked into a "name" trailer unannounced there was a mirror, gold razor blade, a tube of white powder and a dozen or so McDonalds McSpoons on the work bench. At Indy that year the same person offered me 500.00 to bring a "package" back to Chicago, of course I said NFW. As recent as two years ago I was at a National event walking around late on a Saturday and could smell weed burning.

I took some of my buddies, who lived locally, to the Winters in the early 90s. They passed the pipe in the stands... I didn't take part, which was ironic since, at the time, I was the daily smoker, and they were "a few times a year" indulgers.
The ironic thing is, after the demonization of tobacco back in the late 90s, and the heavy taxation on it all over the place, people have moved to smoking pot now. I've been told from people in the school system there are kids in middle school smoking it now. I remember though when that would have been kids smoking cigs. Shoot I remember a few schoolmates rubbing snuff in the 4th grade, lol.
Help me out here Eric...as a 49 year long snuff user, I'm not sure of what "rubbing" snuff is?
I never did it myself but that's what people referred to it. I guess rubbed it between gum and lower lip. I've always heard it referred to it that way.
Thanks Eric. In my neck of the woods its just called dipping. BTW...you're not missing out on anything. Terrible habit.I never did it myself but that's what people referred to it. I guess rubbed it between gum and lower lip. I've always heard it referred to it that way.
Sure! I've heard that term - dipping - too, but not as often.
