The pre-party presented by Byrdland Records featured an electric set by Footwerk who DJ-ed, danced and rapped as cars flashed their lights and honked horns on cue. From classics to original tracks, Footwerk’s music selection and incredible on-screen visuals set the vibe. Between the DJ set and featured movies, a curated selection of music videos from artist agency 7outh7ide7un kept the energy high.
By the time Blunt Factz Trivia host, Phil Hedgeman took the stage, the crowd was ready for some good-natured competition. He asked four questions:
-
What character did Tommy Chong play in Half Baked?
-
In the Stoner flick How High rappers Redman and Method Man ace their college entry exams and end up in Ivy League Harvard university what were their character names?
-
In the classic stoner flick “Jay and Silent Bob,” the main characters go on a quest to stop a movie themed after their longtime comic book characters from being made. What are the names of the characters?
-

VIP guests enjoyed the view from the 2 front rows, along with big red Cannabliss VIP “Hotboxes” full of primo swag from our sponsors. Refreshments were delivered by the Anacostia Organics Carhops who wore green crowns that glowed as they went back and forth across the lot.
Throughout the evening prizes were given away with 5 lucky attendees winning the Cannaline Golden Ticket and having prizes brought directly to their vehicles.
Featured films How High presented by Synergy and Serenity and The Big Lebowski presented by Pink Fox entertained the audience until after 1am.
After a year without live events, it was an absolute thrill to have live music and a way to gather safely together again.
