| Some friends in high school about 40 years ago would meet up every day after school around 4:20 to smoke and after a while they would use the number as code for smoking and it caught on to the rest of America. |

| "It is widely accepted that in the early 1970s, a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California used to meet every day after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke marijuana at the Louis Pasteur statue.[2] [3] Many cannabis users continue to observe 4:20 as a time to smoke communally. By extension April 20 ("4/20" in U.S. dating shorthand) has evolved into a counterculture holiday, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/420_(cannabis_culture)
