The '420' celebration on the CU campus from 2010. Estimates put about 10,000 people on campus for the maligned event that year.

In a departure from past events, CU has cracked down heavily on the annual 420 smoke-out held on campus. Following gathering protests surrounding the campus, a few protestors did make it onto CU grounds and assembled for the traditional smoking appointment.

Updated 4:42pm: Reporter Nathan Heffel (@Heffeln) and Digital Media Manager Jim Hill curated this Storify regarding the move to quash the 420 event in Boulder. KUNC's Jackie Fortier was on campus as well, we should have video from here to post later this evening.
