Origins of 420

[WeThePeople]

As I was smoking a few bowls I get a random thought of 420 and its origins, for 5 years now I have always referd to the meaning of 420 hitlers birthday (april 20) (04-20) and I always thought it was celebrated at 4:20 on april 20, but i remember kids now smoking on random days at 4:20, so I googled it to find its orgins and suposingly it has many diffrent myths

1) 420 was a dispatch code for maryjuana cops used....
2) People beleave 4:20 pm is the best time to smoke and appreciate herb...
3) Snd some say hitlers birthday, wtf why smoke on his birthday.

And some more I forget about now.

So what are your thoughts of 420?

No, it started with a group of kids in the '70s. Their time to light up everyday was 4:20 pm and it stuck and kind of became tradition.

That is not a myth.

Yup... They went to San Rafael High School in San Rafael, CA... They would meet up every day at 4:20 at the Louis Pasture statue to smoke... :bong:

There isn't any way of proving any of that.

But in my case it's funny cause, I wake up around 2:30 in the afternoon so I end up smoking at 4:20 (either first or second time if i wake n bake).
And I get home from work at 2:00 in the morning. So I end up smoking at 4:20 (usually its my last bowl of the night).

lol. I'm always smoking and realizing that it's 4:20. It makes me smile everytime.
