My strangest was one of my best. Top of a mountain in Norway, thought I was on my own so lit my bowl and relaxed. 5 mins later a young Norwegian appeared at the top, pulled out a packed pipe asked if I minded if he joined me. Very memorable for a Scotsman who was away from home working.
That’s a good one!
Was he smoking ‘Grieve Hamilton?’

I've had a couple pipes north of the Artic Circle, which is not especially "weird".

Probably the most unique circumstance I ever smoked in was as a member of the audience at a one-man Mark Twain performance in a tiny theater in Chicago. I was 19 or 20, had just started smoking, and the city was still years away from an indoor smoking ban.

At the time, I thought it was fitting tribute to Mr Twain and that the fact that no one told me out loud to stop was the same as agreement and approval. I consider it rude beyond measure and a regret now. Ah, the blessed, self-centered, ignorance of adolescence...

Yes, but Twain would have totally approved. He said he didn't want to go to heaven if he couldn't smoke.
