Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Although today, as you know, is 4/20, events at Civic Center Park over the weekend, including a concert by Rick Ross, attracted thousands — and prompted the Denver Police Department to issue approximately 160 citations, mostly for public consumption.
And the public did indeed consume, as our 2015 smokeout slideshow demonstrates.
The meme-makers of America have also been busy.
Below, check out a gallery of images that act as a cross between Colorado and 4/20.
It's a hybrid we hope you enjoy. Check them out below.
Send your story tips to the author, Michael Roberts.Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
