First Colorado Pot Club Closes After One Day

By Cornelius Nunev


After just one day of operation, the country's first "pot club" has shut down in Colorado. It was one of two businesses, which allow individuals to bring in their stash and consume it in a spot which is not their home.

Lease worked improperly

Every once in a while, a state will pass legislation that is contrary to federal regulation in a way of pointing out that states have all the power, which was the way the constitution was written technically. Colorado and Washington did just that as they decriminalized the recreational use of marijuana during the election season.

It is not lawful because there is still regulation; that is why it is called decriminalization rather than legalization.

There were two "pot clubs" produced right away in Colorado to allow individuals to bring in and smoke their own weed in the place. The White Horse Inn is one of these clubs that violated his lease because he was so interested in opening shop in the short term schedule, according the Huffington Post.

Kicked out from place

How pot clubs operate is that since selling marijuana is illegal in both Colorado and Washington state, people can purchase a membership. If they wish to fire up a joint or whatever, they can go to the pot club and consume their own supply.

Club 64 was the other club that opened in Colorado, according to ABC, and it was named after Amendment 64 that is allowing the cannabis use. The White Horse Inn was the other choice.

If White Horse owner Paul Lovato had waited one day to open the business, he would have been fine. Since he opened early, he ended up getting evicted from the building by the owner. He was just a little desperate to begin, according to the Huffington Post.

Looking great for other club

There are unsubstantiated rumors Lovato was distracted by the "like...total genius of Pink Floyd" while he was reviewing the contract's terms. Again, it is unverified.

The other pot club in Colorado, Club 64, has a more interesting model. It doesn't have a permanent location, but rather rents out spaces for events. Members pay a $29.99 fee and if they are nearby whenever or wherever a Club 64 "event" is being held, they can show up, show membership and prove they are at least 21 years of age and get as baked as they want, according to CNN.

If there's a Denny's nearby, it'll be rolling in dough after participants are done rolling doobies.
