Denver’s county fair just got a little greener with the addition of pot-themed contests to this year’s event.
But pot enthusiasts hoping to score a blue ribbon should reconsider using an authentic secret ingredient. Alas, real marijuana won’t be allowed at the fairgrounds, The Denver Post reports.
Here’s a rundown of the various marijuana-themed contests at the Denver fair along with a few legal reminders:
BYOB (Beer, not Bud)
Spectators can’t cheer from the sidelines with a puff, puff, pass – not legally, anyway. Even under Colorado’s new law, people can’t smoke in public. That means participants will also need to find another way to calm their nerves before putting their game face on.
For those with a more traditional palate for hedonistic delights, the fair will also include 24 categories of homemade beer, four categories for homemade wine, and one category for “spirits and liqueurs.”
