Dude, Pass me the Doobie



Amsterdam has put their foot (in a wooden shoe) down on the blowverbod. Blowverbod is dutch for smoking pot in public, not to be mistaken for Rookverbod which describes smoking tobacco in public.

This sign actually means that it's forbidden to smoke pot in this special area. This is done in order to tackle the problems with pot smoking youth. People who not respect the rule, will receive a €50 fine. I personally think that the government should take tougher measures in order to stop this crazy habbit.

All the best,

Harm (from Holland)

We are a porn meets music artist collective from Amsterdam and promote practically everything our government doesnt want us to. This blowverbod sign created a huge hype here in amsterdam!!! You can purchase the authentic blowverbod sign as an aluminium version (30cm) for only €24.95 along with T-shirts. The sign is 100% original and we deliver much faster and cheaper than the city.
