About '420'
'420' is celebrated every April 20th at precisely 4:20 p.m. and is an annual celebration of all things related to cannabis culture. It is believed to have originated in California in the early 1970's, after a group of young people started to meet daily at 4:20 each afternoon to partake in what was then an illegal activity in their state.
