Responded to u/acedts post asking about weirdest hitchhiking experiences

Was hitchhiking in Japan when a group of old ladies approached me to give me a lift to Aomori and began asking me the usual hitchhiker questions. Wasn't weird until they asked for my birthday and age, talking about some weird "powerful buddha" they were going to see and wanted me to meet. Though they originally said they'd give me a ride to Aomori, meeting this weird goober quickly became the condition for even getting a ride. Told them I wasn't interested and stayed at rest stop overnight. Still have the pamphlet they were writing on
