North Coastal Prevention Coalition Vice President Ray Pearson recently shared his thoughts on the recreational use of marijuana in a commentary for the U-T San Diego ” ‘Marijuana Bowl’ Buzz Not So Super.”
The piece notes the national marijuana discussion around Super Bowl XLVII, despite the documented harms of marijuana use.
“When teams hailing from Denver and Seattle solidified spots at Sunday’s Super Bowl XLVII, it wasn’t just the talk of two No. 1 seeds duking it out or even Richard Sherman’s antics, but the states’ recreational marijuana sales policies that got the online world buzzing about the ‘Marijuana Bowl.’ “
