I want to add to my previous post as to why I mentioned HF being related to number of people smoking... Usually in the fall we see a peak in new members and activity here on HF due to all the new freshman going to college their first year and being introduced to hookah. That doesn't seem to be the case this year. I can't recall a single new member here recently who's said, "Hey guys, I'm new here. Just got introduced to hookah at my first college party and now I gotta learn all about it!"

Personally, I know more hobbyists getting serious about it lately. Lots of my friends are getting their own pipes and good hardware. It's been fun!

Less activity here since the only lunge around here is a crappy one and the good one was a crappy one so the crappy one we have is super crappy.
A few guys i work with smoke hookah so im putting that in a win colum and say things normal here where i live .

Down here the lounges are always packed bit it's Just full of kids trying to pretend they are cool. Not smoking for the enjoyment of it at all.

i know waht you mean as both someone who enjoys smoking now for the pleasure of it and as one of those kids who was ike yeah i smoke hookah im cool (fist pump).
When i started smoking was at wifes house then friend and it was cool then we started going to the hookah lounge (name that cannot be spoken) and i picked up some good info from the people there and from (name that cannot be spoken well jsut call him Fuck tard) Mr Fucktard despite Fucktard being a Fucktard I got some good knowledge from him then expanded it more when i came lurking here and now i soke to enjoy myself mostly alone because i smoke outside and my wife says its too cold to smoke or its too hot only when we smoke inside on rare occasions do we smoke together .(The fist pump was a joke)

I have noticed a decrease in hookah in the last year, but that is probably because the really cool lounge near us shut down and the other is really overpriced. I personally have decided to quit for a while. It has been a few months now since I've smoked and I'm not sure why. I just haven't felt like it. Maybe I'm burnt out for now from smoking hookah everyday for years but it used to be one of my favorite things.

I've noticed a lot more hookahs being used and smoked, but not a lot of experienced smokers. I've made a couple friends who clearly know their stuff here in Richmond, but other than that, I'm seeing a SHIT TON of hookah hookah, pumpkins, and people vouching that fantasia purple haze is by far the best flavor ever created.


I'm beginning to sneak around, as to avoid a crowd to smoke alone in peace. Kind of sad, really. Maybe that's just the 'ol' man forum' coming out in me.

In a nutshell, I'm noticing a rising trend in hookah popularity, but not true hookah smoking.

I haven't been the the "hookah bar" in my area in a while. I hear it is still popular, but that is probably because they are very lenient on IDing for alcoholic beverages. I don't go anymore because they play loud, shitty, pop music and the place if full of tweeners looking to get served alcohol.

^ exactly what the hookah scene has turned into. One of the many reasons I bought my own hookah. And am going to keep buying more pipes. Smoking with my friends or even alone is better than the bars now

I should probably stop in sometime on a weekday when they are pretty dead and the keep the music down. I enjoy smoking hookah from the privacy of my own home, but it's nice to have it prepared for you and not have to clean up afterward. And their service is pretty good, and the hookahs usually smoke good. Just can't stand the crowd and the horrible music. Most of the time if your not in before 8pm (they open at 7pm) on a weekend you are not getting a seat or a hookah for sometime. And like I said, most of the people there are not there to smoke hookah, they are there to drink underage.
