High humans of Cheba Hut

Marijuana and sandwiches, one story at a time

To celebrate April’s blessed day of green, The Badger Herald visited the local sandwich shop Cheba Hut, known for its ganja-positive vibe and provocatively-kush subs of stoner dreams. The local clientele shared their favorite 420 tidbits with the Herald.

Bernie boy

Badger Herald: “Why are you voting for Bernie?”

One, I was at the Bernie rally and the Trump rally. Yes, I went to Trump just to check. When you went to the Trump rally, half the people were there just to protest. I was with a girl who bought a Bernie button right there. But at the Bernie rally, everyone is there just for Bernie. Second, because we need to break up those big banks. And third, because I like how he’s got all these young kids, like us, into politics. Trump can’t do that.

Badger Herald: “If Bernie wins, will you really burn one for Bernie?”

I burn one for Bernie every day.

Badger Herald: “What’s your best pickup line?”

OK, you go up to a girl, right? And you tell her, “If you were an organ, I know exactly what you would be — an appendix —because I want to take you out.”

Badger Herald: “That was nice.”

Girls usually don’t get it.

The Ladies™

Badger Herald: “Did you smoke today?”

I mean … I didn’t technically smoke. I had an edible. My favorite thing to do when I’m smoking is go hiking. If you haven’t been to Devil’s Lake yet, you should definitely find the time to. Seeing that part of the world is important.

Frandu

Badger Herald: “Are you stoned right now?”

I am MENTALLY stoned. I grew up Catholic, strict parents, every weekend we went to church. And I have given up my life to the Lord. But an hour ago, I said, “LORD, STONE ME! STONE ME!” and now, I would say yeah, I am stoned.

Badger Herald: “What do you do for a living?”

I’m a stand-up comedian, I do shows. I love to laugh. Google me, Google me right now! Frandu. I have a show on May 29th at the Bartelle, and I do shows all over Madison.

Badger Herald: “Tell us a good joke.”

*Forks over a half-eaten bag of sour cream and onion Lays potato chips* The joke is inside.

Father and small son

Badger Herald: ”What’s the story behind you and your son smoking this much weed together?”

This fucking guy. I didn’t like it when he was a kid, but then my cousin told me, “How long are you going to let this wedge get between you?” And so we went on a trip up north and I sorta just turned to him in the car and said, “Brought anything?” and he was like, “Yeah … you brought anything?” and I said, “Yeah.” That was a good day.

Kush alumni

Badger Herald: ”How long have you been here?” 

Not very long. I’m not even stoned. We missed the peanut butter and jelly eating competition!

Professional roller

Badger Herald: “What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done while you were high?” 

Ate a lot of sandwiches. I’ve already eaten two today and definitely going back for a couple more. I had a White Widow and an Afghani. White Widow’s got spicy chicken and ranch. I forgot what’s in the Afghani.

Canadian tuxedo

Badger Herald: “What’s your stance on legalization?

Well, the biggest beef I have right now is that weed is scheduled all wrong. I mean, it’s not heroin! It shouldn’t be class one, it shouldn’t be a felony. There’s no reason to treat it that way, but they do. And that means it’s a felony, and that means we don’t get to do any research to see all the positives of smoking marijuana. I’ve been a paramedic, I’ve worked with cops and then when I was 29 I became a city firefighter. Then I ended up getting sick with stage four neck cancer. I couldn’t smoke while I had cancer, but afterwards when I was getting better I wanted to be off the pain pills. I’ve seen what that does to people. I started smoking weed medicinally. Got rid of the headaches, body aches and the nausea. And yes, I’m high right now. I had a La Canna sandwich with ham and provolone and it was delicious.

Highest of the high, his highness, Dalton

Badger Herald: “Do you usually come here when you’re stoned?”

I’ve been here twice. Both times I was stoned. [pause] So I think that would be like, a 100 percent chance I’m stoned when I’m here.

Badger Herald: “So it could be terrible food sober but you’d really have no idea?”

Good point.
