Tommy Chong Here! Comedian, Musician, Stoned, Loser of Passwords, I Was a Yak in a kids movie once, Almost the Voice of the Edmonton Train, and Stoned…..Ask Me Anything!
My short bio: Hey, SantaChong here, and I got my password back! The original dude we hired saw the post go viral, thanks for the help Reddit!
So much has changed over the past few years, and I thought it was time for another AMA. First off, congrats to many states for legalizing! Second, I just ate an edible about an hour ago so get your questions in before my answers become mumbled gibberish - the clock is ticking.
Recently I’ve been chillin in my house in the Pacific Palisades in Los Angeles, spending time with my dogs Captain and Oso. I always have the news on, watching the dumpster fire white house be a dumpster fire. But I’ve kept busy too, we’re working hard to make Chong’s Choice a household name, expanding beyond pre-rolls and flower into edibles, carts, and more. We also came out with a Daily High Club bong box for the holidays, and keep those red eyes peeled for more new stuff in the works!!
Just like before, I will answer any questions you guys have, raw and unfiltered. Now let’s get to it, ask me anything motherfuckers!
Oh and here’s my shameless plug: Instagram:@heytommychong Twitter: @tommychong Facebook: Tommy Chong duhhh

Do you think someone could actually hide their crops by pretending it's a pool and pretending to swim in the tarp for the helicopter overhead as Cheech did in Nice Dreams?
SantaChong138 karma
I grew up with hockey! I love hockey, except the Toronto Maple Leafs. Hockey is probably the most honest sport out there cause those fights are real

Hey Tommy, Love seeing you out and active in the community. I've only one question I'd like to ask. What is your favourite place to smoke. Which country, or state, or even seat in your home?
If possible could you 'say' "Hi earl" if you reply!
SantaChong64 karma

Everybody knows you as Tommy the stoner; does that get old? What else do you want people to know about you?
SantaChong84 karma
I love being known as Tommy the stoner, it gives me a lot of leeway!
People don't know but sometimes I get afraid
SantaChong119 karma
You probably won't like this answer.... Celery. It's mostly water so I'm never thirsty, and it's super crunchy which I love!
HypnoticGremlin23 karma
How do you like being a business man? Any words of wisdom for anyone looking to get into the cannabis market?
Unleashthenuge20 karma
Tommy were u at Woodstock in '69?
Also, would you consider franchising Chongs Choice to the east coast if legalization occurs?
SantaChong54 karma
I was on my way to Venice beach, but all the hippies I met were going back for Woodstock. I wasn't gonna make the trip back!
Absolutely, I plan on taking Chong's Choice worldwide!
SantaChong66 karma
Yes I did see a UFO in Trail BC in the sixties. It was around midnight and it was a light hovering and it was there for 2 days hovering and then it disappeared
SantaChong46 karma
I haven''t found it yet. I'm still out here searching. I'm terrible with names man
Eazylivin_inc18 karma
What are your thoughts on the upcoming legalization of hemp across America and how do you think it will effect the cannabis community?
SantaChong73 karma
Legalization is incredible, it's like watching an avalanche and there's a bunch of suits trying to stop it
LessNessMann14 karma
Do you miss making the movies that started your career? My wife got me an up in smoke LP for my birthday. Totally Loooove it!
Fellow Canadian here

Hey Tommy! Stocked about this AMA, and can't wait to try Chong's Choice. Two questions: 1) If you had to pick, who would you invite to your 'stoner' Last Supper? 2) What's something you've had since before you first got high with Cheech that you still have and will never get rid of under any circumstance (if you can remember back that far :p)
SantaChong36 karma
Last supper: I'd have to say Michael Chau cause he's a good cook
I've got a watchband that my dad had made out of a piece of steel from a fighter plane from when he was in the war that I got when he had died that i've hung on to
mrscoggins12 karma
Hey Tommy! What was the scariest decision of your life? Alternatively, what was the easiest decision you’ve made? Thanks for doing this!
SantaChong31 karma
Scariest decision of my life... good question They're all x-rated so shouldn't say.
Best decision of my life is definitely marrying my beautiful wife Shelby
SantaChong11 karma
I am looking at some pretty sexy deals in Canada..... keep your eyes peeled for that
SantaChong17 karma
Well that name sure conjures up a lot of visions.... how'd you get that name?
I like smoking my EasyPipe
princessluvsdaddy5 karma
What's going on with your shops in Oregon?
There are still Shango locations, but I hear now you have a different shop name too?
Is this a business split or just slow roll-over effect?
bztko5 karma

Might have to gift myself one
