Go Cardinals!. :wink: :D

Ok, so volcanoes, cancelations and stoners being stoners, the results from the cup go sumfin like this:

There was a total of 49 individual coffeeshop votes. Each vote was based on weed, hash, food/drink, decor, service and bud tender. They were marked from excellent, good, fair, and poor which got a number rating 4, 3, 2, 1. Only a couple of votes had 'hash' marks so hash was disregarded to make it even.

1st. Green Place. (6 votes/100 total/16.6 average)
2nd. Katsu. (5/81/16.2)
3rd. Basjoes (4/78/19.5)

4th. Mellow Yellow. (4/69/17.2)
5th. Hunters. (4/68/17.6)
6h. Dampkring. (4/65/16.2)
7th. 420. (3/57/19)
8th. HGF. (3/45/15)
9th. Grey Area. (2/40/20)

Greenhouse 2/38
Amnesia 2/36
Paradox 2/32
Popeyes 1/20
Styx 1/15
Hill st 1/16
Bagheera 1/15
Bushdoctor 1/13
Club Media 1/5

Considering all the problems 420 had this year I'm amazed we even have this. Obviously it would've been more of a competition with more people voting and the averages suggest the results could've been different, but it's a start. Next year!. Thanks goes to Hestia for organising it and the stoners that took part. 8)

Note. No stoner was injured during the making of this post, though I did try......and if my numbers are wrong, the ice did it!.

Thanks for putting the results up DC and thanks to all the organisers of it. Pain in the arse so many votes where missing due to the volc but thats the way the cookie crumbles.
Lets hope there are no problems next year and we can put Basjoe where it belongs. :wink:

Congrats to Green place and i have no doubt the bud/service/shop was of a high standard.

I'm just glad that the people that DID make it had a great 4-20 in Amsterdam.
We WILL be there next year come hell or high water. Have to make up for not being there this year. :twisted:

Thanks for posting the results DC.
My thoughts:
As a first time participant in the 4/20 festivities, I wasn't sure what to expect,
so I decided not to have any expectations at all. Onward...

I want to recognize and thank Hestia (with a little help from Frank ':wink:' ) for her hard work, enthusiasm, and keeping the party going in spite of the circumstances. On a personal note, I want to thank her for listening to the ramblings of a madman. ':shock:' ':lol:'

Nes Cafe (DC and Crew), best joint in town, full stop!
Peace.

Thankyou Hestia and crew for "just doing it", y'all were super cool. Keepsakes and souveniers for us all it was wonderful. I was a bit trepidatious (good word huh?) cos I'm chronicly shy and not really any kind of party animal, but it was cool with the schedule 'cos I could do my wandering and dreaming and just keep bumping into people and almost keeping up to speed with the C/S marking. Great stuff.
Quite enjoyed the drive back, absolute breeze through borders etc. :D :D :D
What a long strange trip it is.
