There might be a few buddies out at Belle Isle at the Grateful Dead rock. Don’t go one toke over the line, the river will still be high and I’m sure authorities will be watching.
The origin of the term 420, celebrated around the world by pot smokers every April 20th, has long been obscured by the clouded memories of the folks who made it a phenomenon.
