What Is 4/20? The Origins Behind the Holiday
The 420 origins trace back to 1971 in San Rafael, California, where a group of five high school students called “The Waldos” coined the term as a coded meeting time. The group agreed to gather at 4:20 PM near a statue of Louis Pasteur on the campus of San Rafael High School to search for a rumored abandoned cannabis plot in the area.
The term spread through countercultural networks, partly through the Waldos’ loose connections to members of the Grateful Dead and their fan community. From there, cannabis magazine High Times picked up the phrase in the early 1990s and helped spread what is 4/20 to a much wider audience, promoting April 20 gatherings and cementing the date in cannabis culture.
