Blaze it and raise it! Friday marked 4/20, every stoner’s favorite holiday. Columbia students were festive for the occasion, lighting up in honor of the one day a year people don’t care that you’re smoking. Here, in no particular order, are the best stories from this weekend. If you have any stories that you want to add, send them to us at tips@bwog.com and you may just see your story added onto this!
Bwog and 4/20:
- Got high and went hot tubbing. It was mind-blowing.
- Was high for thirty-six hours straight. (Relatedly, spent wayyyyyyyyy too much money on weed this weekend.)
- Got crossed on 4/20 and ended up throwing up at 3 in the morning (but I don’t think it was from the alcohol or the weed).
- Split a bottle of wine and then smoked a joint each with my sister.
- Got high with all my friends and cried for 15 minutes in JJ’s over a joke I made (not even a joke: I called fries “chips” and told my friends I was speaking British).

- Met up with a friend of a friend (a current high school senior who was waitlisted at CC) for lunch. He spent the entire hour asking questions about the “Columbia experience,” and I answered them as well as I could. As I’m walking out, he tells me has one last question. “What is it?” I ask. “Your… your eyebrows. they’re marvelous,” he whispers. “Is there a place around campus where you get them done? I’m dying to know your secret.”
- Spent two hours to get to and from the Met only to spend 20 minutes there.
- Went to my high school reunion which had a premium open bar, blacked out, still trying to figure out how we kept getting free drinks for 3 hours after the reunion was supposed to end? Also vaguely remember walking down the block in the middle of the party in just my t-shirt to withdraw cash from an ATM so we could tip the amazing bar tenders who kept giving us drinks.

Spent Sunday eating my way through Chelsea Market and the Highline, achieving peak cliche date.
