a funny mushroom story

the events described took place almost 30 yrs ago.
i live somewhere in illinois, me and a friend thought it would be a good time to each take a couple hundred bucks and drive 3 hrs north to a specific wisconsin casino. the drive was terrible and there was road construction damn near the whole way. so about an hour away from our destination we each choked down a dry qtr oz of cubes. we get to the casino starting to feel great and it was about 7:00pm we were rite on schedule for a fun filled night out. however being young and ignorant at the time we suddenly came to find out a couple hundred bucks each wasnt jack shit to keep playin the slots the way we were. we were damn near broke and had not even began to peak yet. well during this time period in the 1990s you actually still put real $ into the machines and when you won real $ came out. crazy concept right lol. well anyways we decide we would each take our last 75 or so dollars and go cash it in for all nickels and just play the nickel slots until we were ok enough to make that 3 hour drive home through a 90 mile long nite time construction zone with all them damn blinking orange lights. we were FUCKED UP at this point now. so we both take our giant bucket of nickels over to the machines and proceed to pump them into them. however nothing was happening we went around and tried several different machines and still the same thing. you would put the $ in and it would just come rite back out. so we came to the "logical conclusion" that because it was a weekday and the casino was dead. that the section of the casino was just closed. so i wandered around all giant black eye balls and all and go find a floor worker(pit boss) guy and ask him if he could please have someone turn these games on because we wanted to play them. he replied that they were on and i told him how they were not working and would just spit your $ back out rite after you put it in. so he came over with us and i showed him what it was doing. never in my life have i had givin to me the complete dumb founded and are you fucking retarded? look givin to me the way he did. he only replied sir these are five dollar slots and walked away shaking his head.
now i have felt dumb before but it was at that moment i figured out mushrooms are not meant for that environment. we spent the next 3 hours or so just out of our minds and paranoid walkin around smoking cigs and playin random slots til we were ok enough to come back home.
me n my friend both still visit the casino. just not that fucked up on mushrooms when we do. i hope you all were able to laugh at my dumb ass cuz as anyone who has ever really tripped before knows. you cant really comprehend shit very well in that state. i only saw the giant 5s lit up on the signs and the thought never even occurred to me that there was 5 dollar slots lol

Lol I wouldn’t even have made it inside on a quarter.
My dumb ass moment was for high school graduation all the seniors from a ton of schools in the area went to Disneyland overnight.
We all took an eighth when we got to the parking lot and it was an awesome night, I think 90% of people there were high on something.
Anyway we were waiting in line for a ride where you get in a log, and I was at the front of the line just looking at the lights until it was our turn.
So eventually our empty log pulls up and the chick goes ok you can get in. And I just looked and her and said ok and kept staring at these lights. Then after a few seconds she says it again and I just say yep. We did that like four times and she started cracking up. Finally my buddy behind me pushed me forward and snapped me out of it.
Gotta love public psychedelic experiences.

That's a whole lot of mush for being where you were lol. Risky to eat them before you even got there as well. Sometimes they hit me much faster that I calculated and didnt prepare for it yet
We all have our stories though - this was a good one. I enjoyed the read!

Mescaline is my favorite.
You can buy San Pedro or Peruvian torch cactus and either make tea or run food safe extractions with them.
Problem is people caught on and now most chain nursery’s specifically breed for low actives.
I used to buy mine from a place run by Indians called “cactus mart” and it was literally on the side of the freeway and the only thing for miles.
The old man would always laugh and tell us to be careful, and we used to just hack the cactus off and give him back the stumps to regrow.

It’s like ms with cubes, never know how strong it’ll be.
I used to start with a cactus like two feet tall and like 4 inches across, and boil it down to a cup or two. It’s a trade off cuz more you reduce it the stronger it tastes.
Def the worst taste I’ve ever had, I would suck on ice to numb my tongue then pound the cactus mixed with sunny delight as fast as I could then drink a chaser.
Freezing the cactus tea into cubes you could swallow was my plan for the next time.
But I’ve had the most amazing trips from them. So much more visual and less mind fuck than shrooms or acid.

As a non-gambler I'm not completely understanding the slot machine situation. Were you putting nickels into a slot that would accept $5 bills like a vending machine?

lol wow never in my life id thought id have to explain how slot machines work lol il try my best for ya
back in the day you use to put in quarters, silver dollars,nickles, or 5$ and 10$ tokens that you would buy from the cashier. so you could insert up to 3 of whatever denomination you were playing. the more you put in the more you would win if it hit. and when it would hit it would pay you out in the denomination of the machine be it qtrs nickels silver dollars ect. so being as fucked up as i was i just saw the big ass 5 lit up on the signs and machines i just figured they were the nickel ones i paid no attention to the cent or dollar symbol next to it. does this help u understand it lil better?
