Snoop Dogg's Blunt Roller Will Be Judge In Ohio's First Joint-Rolling Contest At Stargazer Cannabis Festival
Snoop Dogg's Blunt Roller Will Be Judge In Ohio's First Joint-Rolling Contest At Stargazer Cannabis Festival
The Stargazer Cannabis Festival's inaugural joint-rolling contest has attracted a bona fide pro: Snoop Dogg's full-time, professional blunt roller since 2016, Rana Samarghandi, also known as "Ranagade PerRana" on social media. As Ohio fully embraces its first full year of legal recreational marijuana, this summer's inaugural joint-rolling competition attracted 11,000 applications from wannabe judges.
Stargazer大麻節的首屆捲菸比賽吸引了一位真正的職業選手：Snoop Dogg自2016年以來的專業捲菸機Rana Samarghandi，社交媒體上被稱爲“Ranagade PerRana”。隨着俄亥俄州完全接受其第一個完全合法的娛樂性大麻年份，今年夏天的首屆聯合滾煙比賽吸引了來自11000名想要成爲評委的申請者。
The most famous —that we know of— is Samarghandi, whose work was featured in the now-famous Joe Rogan episode when he and Tesla CEO Elon Musk famously lit up on the air.
最著名的 - 我們所知道的 - 是Samarghandi，她的作品曾在現在著名的Joe Rogan的一集中亮相，當時他和特斯拉CEO Elon Musk在節目中著名地用火機點燃菸捲。

"Have you ever seen the Elon Musk, Joe Rogan episode where they smoke a blunt? That was her blunt," said Chad Thompson, organizer of the joint-rolling contest.
“你看過Elon Musk和Joe Rogan吸菸的那集嗎？那是她的菸捲，”聯合滾煙比賽組織者Chad Thompson說。
"She's actually from Ohio. ... Really amazing woman still rolling professionally today, so we're very honored to have her as a judge. She's also going to host our award ceremony on Sunday," Thomson said. The event is taking place on July 27 at southern Ohio's Wisteria Campground.
“她實際上來自俄亥俄州...這是一個非常了不起的女人，如今仍然是一名職業選手，所以我們很榮幸能夠邀請她擔任評委。她還將在星期天主持我們的頒獎典禮，”湯姆遜說。該活動將於7月27日在俄亥俄州南部的Wisteria營地舉行。
Thousands Of Applications: Only One Judge's Name Revealed
數千份申請：只有一位評委的名字被揭示。
Thompson revealed details about the judges selected for the contest to NBC4 on Wednesday. His team received some 11,000 applications, some coming from Alaska, Hawaii, Colorado and even Australia.
週三，湯普森向NBC4透露了被選中參加比賽的評委的詳細信息。他的團隊收到了來自阿拉斯加，夏威夷，科羅拉多甚至是澳大利亞的大約11000份申請。
Samarghandi was the only judge Thompson identified by name. Though he also mentioned two other veteran judges from Michigan, who advised keeping the rest of the names private to maintain competition integrity. Another judge, an Ohio scientist who ran one of the first testing labs for the state's medical marijuana program was chosen for his/her "scientific analytical approach" despite lacking professional judging experience, Thomas said. The final judge is another Ohio-based professional joint roller whose Instagram pictures of rolled joints impressed him and the organizers.
Samarghandi是湯普森指定的唯一一名評委。雖然他還提到了來自密歇根州的另外兩名資深評委，但爲了保持比賽的公正，其餘的評委姓名將保密。湯姆遜說，另一位俄亥俄州科學家被選爲評委，他爲州立醫療大麻計劃之一的測試實驗室運行，儘管缺乏職業評委的經驗，但被選中是因爲他的“科學分析方法”。最後一名評委是另一位俄亥俄州的職業捲菸機，他的Instagram滾煙圖片給他和組織者留下了深刻印象。
"We had to go to like Instagram to look up some of the like the pictures of the joints that the professional roller had described," Thompson said. "And when we did, it was just, we were in awe. ... I thought to myself, if he is not a judge and he enters the competition, he's a shoe-in to win."
“我們不得不到Instagram上查看一些專業捲菸機所描述的捲菸的圖片，” 湯普森說，“當我們這樣做時，我們感到非常敬畏。......我想，如果他不是評委而是參賽，他就有機會獲勝。”
Raw, the rolling papers manufacturer, has also thrown in prizes for the winners of the contest. Thompson said those would be kept secret until the festival begins.
捲菸紙製造商Raw也爲比賽獲勝者提供了獎品。 湯普森表示，這些獎品將在節日開始之前保密。
