Law Enforcement
Oklahoma City cops usually seemed to have bigger things to deal with, and city police weren’t especially visible on the north side. Nichols Hills and Edmond had a very different reputation. Drivers could get pulled over for the smallest thing.
Where to Buy Marijuana
In OKC, weed usually came through a friend or a friend of a friend. Head shops and the arts district were places people met other smokers. If it was a dry spell in the city, the college crowd in Norman was about 20 minutes away and had a reputation for a better selection.
Marijuana Prices
- Kind bud: US$20–25 per gram or US$50–70 per ⅛ oz
- Schwag: US$30–50 per oz. Much cheaper, with quality to match.
Types of Marijuana
Big Bud, delicious Bubble Gum, Cali Haze, White Rhino, Purple Indica, some medical-grade flower, OC Kush, M39, AK-47, Blueberry and Granddaddy Purp all turned up more than once. The day’s selection usually came down to whatever happened to be on hand.
More Information
There was plenty of bud in OKC once you knew people. Finding it cold was the hard part. Good luck and peace.
