Question: What do you call a stoner without a 420 event to party at? Answer: The saddest stoner around.
We don’t want you to be a sad stoner this 420 season. That would be, well, sad. But the good news is that you don’t have to be! There are a metric ton of
420 events you can travel to, all of which are within a decent driving distance of good ol’ Southwest Colorado.
Whether your goal is to check out the epic stoner Afroman in concert (make sure to take a joint the size of a broomstick if you do) or pre-game it with the help of Ice Cube and Cypress Hill, these stoner 420 events have you covered for the entire month of April. So get to it.
And don’t say we never did anything for ya, aight?
