Next weekend we will be bringing you live coverage of the HIGH TIMES Medical Cannabis Cup in Los Angeles. Tune in to http://live.norml.org on Saturday, Feb 11 and Sunday, Feb 12 from Noon to 7pm Pacific Time for free live coverage of the panels, the expo floor, and interviews with cannabis culture celebrities.
If you plan on attending the event, get your tickets online NOW – they sell out fast! Use the promo code CANORML to get a special 40% discount for supporters of The NORML Network!
We will be holding our Special “4:20 Somewhere” Raffle both days at the Cannabis Cup. Tickets are $5 at the event or five for $20 and the proceeds benefit The NORML Network. We’ll have six raffles each day for over $2,000 worth of prizes and your ticket is good for every raffle until you win or the last raffle ends. You need not be present to win, but you must pick up your prizes at the event; we will not ship them or hold them after 7pm Sunday.
We will announce the winning ticket numbers at :20 after on our live coverage (which you can view on our Ustream app for your iPhone or Android), through our @NORMLNet Twitter account (so follow us!), by text message to your cell (if you write your number on your tickets), and on a whiteboard at our merch desk.

In the last three raffles of the day, we’ll add an autographed NORML banner signed by the whole NORML SHOW LIVE crew, HIGH TIMES crew, and other cannabis celebrities.


Contact your elected representatives and urge them to 'Stop Arresting Marijuana Smokers'. 
What?!? Just anybody could buy marijuana at the Cannabis Cup? I am shocked – shocked, d’ya hear – at such an allegation. I watched it myself as my good friend, Freddie Farach, approached one of the collectives’ booths in the “Prop 215 Area”. Freddie explained he was just visiting, but the collective attendant did not hear that and, instead, handed Freddie a clipboard and asked if he’d like to join the collective. All Freddie needed to do was sign the piece of paper and then the collective would be glad to donate to Freddie a large hit of hash oil while allowing Freddie to reimburse the collective for the $12.50/gram production cost of the 4-gram eighth of Bubba Kush the collective had donated to Freddie.
But no, there were no sales going on there, not at all.
Yo Russ, Why is it that they were allowing just anyone to buy cannabis at the LA High Times cannabis cup? That was completely against the law and I was wondering how they got away with it?
What do you think?
