Why was 420 chosen as the weed day?
April 20, or 4/20, is the most popular day of the year for marijuana smokers to get together and celebrate their love of weed. But why is it called 4/20? And why do people celebrate on this day in particular?
Where did 420 come from?
420 started as a code word among high school students in California in the 1970s.
The term was used to refer to smoking pot and eventually became associated with the time 4:20 p.m.
There are several theories about how it spread from California to become a global phenomenon.
