Every year as many as 10,000 stoners converge on the campus of the University of Colorado Boulder for one purpose: to smoke weed. Much of the crowd consists of outsiders, who do not even attend the school.
The event, which takes place on April 20, has come to be known simply as 4/20. For years police and university officials have tried to stop the event, issuing warnings, writing tickets, turning on sprinklers, erecting barriers, but so far their efforts have proved futile. The pot smokers simply overrun the barriers and ignore the warnings.
This year, however, university officials will try a new method to stop 4/20:
University officials plan on taking fish fertilizer and spreading it out over the entire Norlin Quad. They say it could make the area virtually uninhabitable. It may seem like an extreme measure, but university officials say they will do whatever it takes to end the pot party.
“It’s a traffic nightmare. It’s sometimes 10,000 people here in the heart of the campus,” Ryan Huff with the CU-Boulder Police Department said.
Fish fertilizer?
Whether it’s due to 10,000 pot smokers, or truckloads of salmon entrails, or all that mixed together, one thing is clear–UC Boulder is going to reek on Friday.
