Baisiclly, 420 has become code speak for "pot smoking" "Time to smoke pot" "Lets go smoke pot" and, "Aint pot great!" Suddenly the term was everywhere. There have been a host of speculative Explinations about its origin: A ploice radio code for pot smoking in progress, at the time of the day, Albert Hofmann first took LSD etc.. ALL FALSE. It has actually been tracked to a code phrase used by a bunch of Northern Calafornia friends in the '70s who met every day around 4.20pm to smoke out. They shared 420 with college buddys later, but how it spread beyond that is the stuff of legend. Somehow it got in the laxicon off those who followed the Greatful Dead from concert to concert, and 420 went world wide from there! |
