Thanks for clearing that up. I'm not doubting you at all, just curious as to what experience you have with other dope scenes in the New England area for you to say that Providence has the best scene north of NYC? I don't want you to think I'm challenging you; I know you've been involved in the game for many years and I value your opinion which is why I'm asking.
I mean, people used to come from Mass and Connecticut as far up as NH and Vt to buy dope.....It's not anything you can really prove, it's a huge underground market and I definitely can't speak for all of New england....I've copped in New Bedford and Fall river, Ma....New London, New Haven Conn....
the reason I say Prov has the best scene is that it's always been so easy to find, cheap and plentiful there.....lots of different dealers, and since the city is not that big, getting new connections was a piece of cake....
So, historically, a lot of dope went through Providence and people went there because of the convenience of it.....
In recent years, it's gone much more underground from the days when you could buy open air from random dealers all over town, but there's still a lot of it there...It's just not as easy to access as before and the cops continually crack down on drug-houses and corners....It's all about the phone connects, but half the phone connects make you meet them in places that are pretty hot anyway! There's lots of cops there, it seems like, and there's really nowhere to hide! The state police like to cruise all through there now looking to bust people on small time possesion charges, it's become stressful!
The one complaint with the Providence dope scene is the consistency and quality....There's always tons of it around, but there's always a lot of people pushing garbage, so you have to be careful....
The other thing, New England was pretty much all stamp bags up until '05 '06....
And the dope was generally better in the days before it switched to grams
