Do you find the smell of burning marijuana offensive? According to the regulations in place for a legal market you shouldn't have to suffer in a public space, yet it's happening more and more every day. Pedestrians light up bowls walking down the street, and plumes of smoke billow out of the vehicle next to you at the stop light. It's a big world out there, but the smell of burning cannabis seems to be the thing that most who do not partake complain about.

Cannabis has been legal for adults 21 or older for a few years now in Connecticut. dispensaries are just about everywhere, but every time that I've driven through our Capital city of Hartford recently, I can't escape that skunk. Hartford, West Hartford, and Manchester roadways reek of weed. Hartford County is the leader so far in Connecticut in sheer volume cannabis dispensaries, especially with INSA in town, and the black-market sales have not taken a dip.

The second city where I guarantee you will smell a fat joint being roasted within minutes is New Haven. New Haven is Connecticut's counterculture epicenter, and alcohol was it's most prevalent vice. You still can see the bar crowd shuffling along between stops in downtown, but New Haven now reeks of weed.

Two of Connecticut's largest cities were easy for me to choose as the most weed-smelling our of the 169 we have, but the third city I'd like to highlight for it's toasty atmosphere is Bristol. The smell of burning weed is very strong around Bristol lately, maybe the cloud shifted from Hartford?
