International “Weed Day” comes around ever April 20th, and is more commonly referred to as “4/20”. In many parts of the world, people get together and light up to show their support for marijuana legalization, or to simply light up and show support for having a good time.

Those good times make their way over to Pornhub as well, where searches for marijuana related terms get higher — waaaaay higher maaan. On 4/20, searches containing the term “420” went up 564% above average daily levels, “weed” searches went up 710% and “marijuana” went up 817%.

Men searched for marijuana related terms 464% more than usual, and women 365%. Searches were higher among all age groups, especially 18 to 24 year olds, who lit up Pornhub’s search bar 552% more, followed by 414% for 25 to 34 year olds, and 351% for 35 to 44. While 45 to 64 year old were less than 200% higher, those over 65 were 275% more interested in weed on 4/20.

Across the United States, searches for all marijuana related terms were up an average of 645%. Wyoming was highest of all, up by 773%, followed by 764% in Vermont, South Dakota and Montana. Even less-high states were still pretty high on 4/20, including a 501% in searches in Mississippi, 535% in Alabama and 557% in Delaware.

The most popular related search on 4/20 is indeed “420”, followed by “weed”, “smoking weed” and “high on weed”.
