[Openingkool]

and 4/20 is national weed holiday....

 

[superskunkxnl]

Although many diverse theories exist to explain the origin of the term, it is widely accepted that in 1971, a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California used to meet after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke cannabis at the Louis Pasteur statue.[3][4] The term became part of their group's salute, "420 Louis!",[5] and became popularized in the late 1980s by fans of The Grateful Dead.[6] Many North American cannabis users continue to observe 4:20 as a time to smoke communally. By extension April 20 ("4/20" in U.S. dating shorthand) has evolved into a counterculture holiday, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis.[7][8][9] In some locations this celebration coincides with Earth Week

i found something too 4/20 | Marijuana "Holiday" | Warning for Parents

 

[Erniedytn]

I always thought that it was the police code for Marijuana. Like a 420=Marijuana possesion, a 187=murder and a 211=robbery. That was what I was told years ago and have never really questioned it.

 

[shamegame]

I swear it came from the fact that in many areas in the U.S., the police code for possesion of MJ was a code 420. Just as murder is /was 187. I don't know about those college kids and their statue...
