Welcome to Rekt Eddie’s, The History of 420: Have you ever wondered where that term came from? Its roots trace back to the 1970s, Over the decades, 420 has transcended its origins to become a global cultural phenomenon. Join us as we delve into the fascinating origins and evolution of this iconic phrase.
In the early 1970s, a group of high school students from San Rafael, California, known as the “Waldos,” unwittingly sparked a cultural phenomenon when they coined the term “420.” The story goes that the Waldos, eager to explore the nearby Point Reyes Peninsula in search of a hidden cannabis crop, agreed to meet at 4:20 p.m. after school to begin their quest. The code “420” was born from their plan to rendezvous, and although the treasure they sought remained elusive, the term they created would go on to become iconic in cannabis culture.
While the Waldos may have originated the term, it was their connection to the Grateful Dead that propelled “420” into the broader consciousness. One of the Waldos had familial ties to the Grateful Dead, providing them with access to the band’s inner circle. As a result, the term “420” began circulating within the Deadhead community, gaining traction among concertgoers and fans. The Grateful Dead’s influence helped spread the term far beyond the confines of San Rafael, embedding it in the fabric of cannabis culture.
As the Grateful Dead toured the country, they carried the spirit of 420 with them, sharing it with their devoted followers at concerts and gatherings. The term quickly became synonymous with cannabis consumption and camaraderie, permeating various countercultural movements of the era. As underground publications and word of mouth carried the story of the Waldos and their 420 code, the legend grew, solidifying 420’s place in the cultural lexicon with the history of 420.
Over the decades, 420 has transcended its origins to become a global cultural phenomenon. April 20th (4/20) is now recognized worldwide as a day of celebration and advocacy for cannabis legalization. Cannabis enthusiasts from all walks of life come together on 4/20 to honor the plant’s rich history, advocate for its medicinal and recreational use, and push for broader legalization.
