24-foot bong in Las Vegas celebrates cannabis culture

There are two flights of stairs curling around the head-turning glass bong, all 24 feet of it. There also will be an elevator to ferry people from the ground floor — where the pipe’s 100-gallon reservoir sits — to the mouthpiece high above.To get more news about cheap bong under 50, you can visit sharebongs.com official website.

It weighs more than 800 pounds and the bowl can pack a quarter of a pound of marijuana. It has elements in the glass that will make it glow — greenish mostly — while bathing in black light. Jason Harris, the artist who made it, said it’s his artistic opus to the cannabis culture.
It’s a sensory tsunami on Fremont, filled with street musicians playing “Stairway to Heaven” on electronic violins or steel drummers hammering out hits from the ’80s. There are screams from people shooting down a zip line above the street. Tribute bands blast metal music, and boozy packs of tourists point at half-naked men and women trying to lure them into posing for a picture.
And size matters, too.
Vegas Vic — the iconic neon cowboy — towers above a souvenir shop and stands 40 feet tall. There’s a giant pint of Guinness atop Hennessey’s that is 80 feet tall. Slotzilla, a slot machine perched in the middle of Fremont Street, reaches a height of 120 feet.“Las Vegas will be the new Amsterdam of the world,” he said. “I see it as a big lighthouse and beacon that says, ‘Just smoke me.’”
Most bongs are variations on the same structure; a central, water-filled chamber and a tube extending from near the bottom—below the water level—that ends in a pipe bowl. The mouthpiece, or downstem, is at or near the top of the chamber. Bongs can be straight-tube, round-based, or beaker-shaped, depending on the shape and size of the central chamber. Most are actually flat-bottomed, even the round-based bongs. The difference is how much the bottom flares out. There more flare, the less likely your bong is to tip over.

Some smaller bongs look more like a traditional pipe in shape, with the water reservoir in a swollen area between the bowl and the mouthpiece, but they work on the same basic principle.

Regardless of shape, the bigger a bong is, the more smoke is needed to fill it. Users with really big lungs, or who like to share with friends, like big bongs, but for others, the larger size tends to waste herb.
