Just before midnight on Jun 30, two lines of smiling, well-behaved people snaked around two sides of the Blum marijuana dispensary on Virginia Street in Reno. Friday night traffic was heavier and slower than usual. Motorists rubber-necked and tooted their horns as they passed. Blum is one of four medical marijuana dispensaries in Reno licensed by the state and the city to open to those 21 years of age and older on July 1. The Nevada Department of Taxation licensed 39 medical dispensaries to open under the “early start” program in Clark County, one in Nye County in Pahrump, and the mood outside Blum in Reno at ten minutes to twelve a.m. on June 30 was festive. Brian Bahouth takes us on a sound rich tour of the Blum event.
