Smoker Tips For Burning Man Festival
For many smokers and first time burners, it is difficult to get into the habit of not throwing away your butts on the ground. Cigarette Butts are also considered MOOP. If you roll your own and use a paper filter, and wanna throw away the roach? That is also MOOP. To make sure you don’t have everyone around yelling at you, here are some tips for the smoker. You’ll want to make sure to bring:
- Lighters (more than one, they get stolen)
- Portable Ashtray
- Cigarette Holder
- Rolling Papers, Tips (Optional)
- Enough Tobacco for a week plus some, you WILL Gift them
- Or, forget all of the above and just go vape pen
Always Carry An Ashtray
As you walk around, make sure you have a portable ashtray in your pouch or bag. This lets you light one up wherever you are, and not have to worry about MOOPing. It’s also nice to hold out as a gift if you are a smoker in a group. It’s like a mini firepit for smokers. Here are some tips for Portable Ashtrays.
The Upcycle
Nothing beats an Old Altoid Box. These things are so handy for so many things at The Burn. More Altoid Hacks
Go For Tech Heat Resistant
These small pocket ashtrays have lasted me for many Burns. They are small and easy to pack, and extinguish any fires. Learn More
Go For Style
You can always go for a more SteamPunk Style or more refined look for your Ashtray. There are a lot of old style portables available, but they tend to fill up quickly with only a few smokes. See More
One thing you should take a bunch of is LIGHTERS. Whether you have to start a fire, light a smoke, or even do some flaming hand trick, you’re gonna need a lighter. Of course there are a lot of different lighters, but this one was quite handy. It’s come in handy in more than one way out on The Playa.
At Burning Man when asking for a light, if they say, “No sorry I don’t smoke.” I just reply, “Would you like to start?” Bad joke, granted.
