Dad Grass x CREEM - Bud Howdy! Grasstray

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, what better way for your joints to be snuffed? Drummed up in collaboration with CREEM, “America’s only rock ‘n’ roll magazine,” this special edition version of the Dad Grasstray features CREEM mascot and symbol of the rock underground, Boy Howdy!, an original R. Crumb creation. It’s ceramic, 3.5" in diameter and just like Rock ‘n’ roll itself, these babies are Made in the USA. 

About CREEM:

In 1969, CREEM was launched in Detroit as a raw, unfiltered, unapologetic rock ‘n’ roll magazine, and ushered in a new era of raucous, participatory journalism. The mag broke barriers, rattled cages, and connected people to music in a way that has never been replicated. Today, CREEM has risen to reclaim their mantle as America’s only rock ‘n’ roll magazine. Because when was the last time you had any fun reading about music? Trust us. Subscribe now, only at creem.com.

About the Boy Howdy! Beer Can:

America’s only rock ’n’ roll magazine is also the creator of the most iconic fake beer in rock history. Since 1969, CREEM has photographed everyone from The Ramones to Tina Turner hoisting the Boy Howdy! beer can, which depicts CREEM mascot and symbol of the rock underground, Boy Howdy!, an R. Crumb original creation.

About Our Dad Stashes

Maybe it was in an old coffee can in the garage. Maybe it was wrapped in an old faded bandana, wedged between his favorite records. Either way, you probably knew, or at least suspected, that your dad liked to get high once in a while. And like any good Dad, he was always prepared. Along with the original vinyls, favorite drink and out-of-reach memorabilia, your dad’s stash of grass was there to keep his soul light and his head right.

You’re all grown up now and you probably have a stash of your own. If you’re lucky, you might even have a few perfectly rolled J’s from your friends at Dad Grass in there.  It’s reserved for slow-dances after date nights, long summer evenings with the neighbors or those rare moments of solitude and self reflection. It’s not for the kids. And certainly not for their friends.  You’ve got to keep some things sacred, so you try to keep your stash hidden away just like your Dad did. 

As students of the ancient art of stashing grass, a tradition that dates all the way back to 8000BC, we’ve seen and tried it all. So believe us when we tell you that your secret spot probably isn’t a secret.  It may even be the first place they look! But there’s no need to stress.  We’ve got you covered with our series of Dad Stashes, an ever-evolving but always-revolutionary stashing system that lets you hide your grass in plain sight.

Warning: If you really want to keep your Dad Grass (or anything, for that matter) away from your kids, parents or other sets of sticky fingers, try the classic ‘lock and key’ approach. Dad Stashes are not child-proof nor are they guaranteed to dupe everytime.
