Potheads, and the 420 phenomenon

[Iamnotatool]

Snopes has a good report on 420 (http://www.snopes.com/language/stories/420.htm)

I heard a lot more bout this down in south Florida. Lots of cars had the stickers, and people put them on bongs, skateboards, and whatnot.


Myth.It's the code you send to your drug dealer's pager.

Yeah, right. All drug dealers recognize a '420' page as "Please be waiting on the corner with my baggie of wildwood weed."

When I read that I thought it said Snoogs. It would make just as much sense.

from how i understand it, 420 is the numerical code for a weed possesion, IE 187 is homicide

It's the Los Angeles or New York police radio code for marijuana smoking in progress.


i dont know where your from, but here, thats called possesion. not marijuana smoking in progress

i know its not for that, but this still looks funny:
904I - Illegal burning

yea we have a couch being removed from someone ele's house in progress on 34th st

when im making a plan to smoke with someone, we generally just say we are gonna smoke or blaze or burn, no numbers or gay shit like that.

AND WE SURE AS HELL DIDNT TALK ABOUT IT IN SCHOOL, code or not, thats just stupid, cause someone will know and say something. Narcs were all over my HS

It is strange though, usually me and my friend blaze a bowl at the pizza place before work, and whenever we are done, i look at the clock and its usually like 4:22 when we are finished. just kinda weird, though we do start at 4:30 so it makes sense

I had always heard that 420 pm was the most common smoke time. After school, etc.

i think thats more cause that just happens to be the main time people get the first chance. school ends around 3, like i said, i work at 4:30. alot of pot smoking types like to board and work later jobs to sleep late. since most mountains close at 4, around 4:20 only makes sense

I've heard like a thousand explanations for its origins, and i'm sure none of them are true.

When I was in college the stort was that there was a street clock at Haight Ashbury in San Francisco that had stopped running at 4:20.

I thought it was about Hitler's birthday: April 20.

Or maybe Barney Gumbel -- his birthday is the same.

I've never actually taken the 420 term seriously. Like, it would be funny if i was blazin with somebody and we realized it just happened to be that time, but I/we have never planned smoking around that nor have I ever used "420" to signify or say I was about to smoke.
