Celebrating April 20: How Cannabis Culture and Easter Traditions Come Together.

The marijuana holiday called 4/20 was on Easter this year. People celebrated in different ways like Easter egg hunts and special foods. Some had events like drag shows with a weed theme.

The term \"420\" comes from a group of high school friends. They would meet at 4:20 p.m. to look for a hidden marijuana plant. They never found it, but the term became popular.

The friends, called the Waldos, have proof of using the term in the 1970s. The term spread after they hung out with the band Grateful Dead. Someone made a flyer for a 4/20 event at a Grateful Dead show, and it became a holiday.

Today, 4/20 is a big event for the marijuana industry. Many states have legalized marijuana for fun or medicine. However, some states have recently voted against legalizing it.

Marijuana is still illegal under federal law. Some politicians want to change this and let states make their own rules. They want to help the marijuana industry grow and reduce crime.
