    Huh I never knew this was a “hot box” phrase, I always heard it as the female equivalent of a “sausage fest” i.e. a social gathering dominated by women

      Clambake has always meant smoking weed in an enclosed space to me, typically a car. See also: fishbowl

        Nah, that’s a hotbox. Unless you’re a woman and only smoking with other women. Then it would be a clambake hotbox.

          Plenty of people, at least at one time, used clambake to refer to a hotbox. “Clambake weed” returns plenty of results, although it does appear the inverse sausagefest definition is more popular. Why can’t it be both?
