Whether you’re puffing, munching or just partaking in a lazy Sunday, here are some fun and interesting ways to celebrate 4/20 in Philadelphia.
GoPuff
The multi-faceted delivery brand that originated in Philly is offering a few different treats in honor of 4/20 from their new bakery.
Locals can “get baked” with the brand’s new partnerships, including the Exclusive Gopuff x Magnolia Bakery Puff’rnutter Cupcakes (vanilla and chocolate cupcakes topped with peanut butter buttercream frosting, filled with a marshmallow center), Gopuff x Fat & Weird Cookies (five different flavors will be available), Donut Holes & Treat Bars (flavors span Cinnamon Churro, Chocolate or Vanilla Irish Cream, Birthday Cake and Smores’), plus the “Gardening” Essentials & Munchies Bundles.
The latter features rolling papers, lighters, grinders, hydration, candy, snacks and different ice cream bundles from the bakery from April 15 to 20. More information can be found on the app or online.
Weeding Out the Stoned
Weeding Out the Stoned, aka “The Game Show of Sobriety Tests” is heading to Philadelphia on April 20. During the show, host and creator Alex Grubard administers field sobriety tests, both mental and physical, to a group of cannabis-induced comics (one of which is actually not partaking) so you can determine which are stoned and which comic is stone-cold sober.
The show will hit Helium Comedy Club at 7 p.m., tickets ($22-30) can be bought at the door or online.
