Additionally, in light of the spirit of the day, I decided to do a bit of research. From this research, I ultimately determined that the 4/20 tradition did not in fact begin at San Rafael High School in 1971 because the teens used to meet at 4:20 PM to smoke by a Louis Pasteur statue every day. Instead, the 4/20 tradition actually began here at our very own Stanford University in the 1960's. 420 actually marks the number of times per day that EBF (Enchanted Brocolli Forest) residents smoked marijuana. I kid you not. Not to mention, former 1960's Stanford alumni actually also celebrate August 25th or 8/25 (825 was the number of lines of coke snorted each day per EBF resident back in those wild years).
