"4/20 Celebrations Across the US: From Legal Weed in NYC to Chilling in NJ"
New York City's annual 4/20 celebration was a far cry from the raucous "legalize pot" rallies of the past, with the legalization of marijuana in the state taking the edge off the event. The atmosphere was more like a street fair, with merchandise sellers almost outnumbering smokers. The police presence was high, but they seemed more concerned with harassing vendors than enforcing drug laws. Despite the lack of actual marijuana for sale, there were plenty of gadgets and edibles available to deliver a kick.
