I hitchhiked a lot ten or so years ago. Mostly to and from and in between concerts. Found most of my rides in the parking lots but occasionally found myself walking when a ride didn't work out. I've stood under those signs that forbid picking up hitchhikers because of a nearby prison and gotten rides. Never stuck out my thumb or anything, just walked and collected rides. Sometimes I walked a long-ass way.
I usually pick 'em up too. I won't pick up old people or anybody sitting on their ass on the side of the road. Never had a bad experience picking one up - quite a few crazy but harmless guys that didn't really know where they were going or where they were. Had quite a few fucked up experiences getting rides, including speeding drunks, violent rednecks, and a bearded lady that couldn't keep her nasty hand outta my pants.
