A cloud of smoke rises over people smoking as a clock hits 4:20pm while musician Lil Jon performs during the Mile High 420 Festival in Denver, Colorado, on April 20, 2022, known by some as 'Weed Day'. Tens of thousands of cannabis enthusiasts gathered in Denver on April 20 to celebrate the ever-widening US legalization of recreational weed with plumes of pungent smoke, music... and a few grumblings about commercialization.
