ICMag with help from Landrace Warden and The Vault is running a NEW contest in November! You can check it here.
Prizes are seeds & forum premium access. Come join in!
For the third year, HIGH TIMES hosted a cannabis event in Denver. But 2013 was different. In the wake of Colorado’s historic passage of an initiative that made adult, recreational use of cannabis legal, HIGH TIMES invited the entire country to the first US Cannabis Cup. In truth, this was the tenth stateside Cup that HIGH TIMES has hosted. But no other event in the magazine’s history has drawn as much support from the cannabis community or as much as interest from the international media.
Well over 10,000 cannabis fans turned out for the biggest event in HIGH TIMES history, two days of seminar, over 200 booths, medication areas for Colorado’s medical community, and a whole lot of free hits for the high-spirited crowd. In addition to dabs and bong hits, attendees were able to sample a stunning array of medically infused treats. Plus there were concerts featuring Slighty Stoopid, Cypress Hill, and a very special Friday night concert where Snoop Lion graciously accepted the Lester Grinspoon Lifetime Achievement Award.
As always, the cannabis is what drew the crowds and stoked the high-flying mood of the crowd. Here are the winners!

thanks for posting results...whats the point of having a US and medical cup seperate? itslike there are 2 different 1st place cups for each section....
also only 10k folks? i thought estimates were up in the 50-80k range
and the shooting is all over news..but that wasnt at the actual cup correct? it was an outdoor show i believe...not sure though.
Gang related shooting at the rally.50 to80k sounds about right ,to many people for space.not handicapped friendly. Still had a great time,met lots of like minded people.thamk you Denver and will be back.happy trails....
medc up results are also based on lab testin i believe, cannabis cup results just based on judges? i could be wrong.
shit im not complaining aout 2 high times events instead of one
had a great time at the cup, congrats to the winners, congrats to all the participants & attendees.
stood in line for like 2 hours, not a bad wait, except that i was in line behind THE WORST newyorker ganja broker, talked so damn loud about all his bizness, prices local people he got from..... showin no respect to people around him or the growing scene at all.... fukn tourists... i coulda killed him
lol
^^ ^^ ^^
the indoor red card only area (shown here) was much less crowdedthan the outdoor "recreating" area, (there was also an outdoor redcard only area). Red card meaning colorado medical patients only. Also, there was an area indoors that was non medicating:
awards time:

to say the least, altho crowded as hell; it was a good time, dabs were had by all
sickest rig I hit, probably one of the tastiest dabs i took all day, i distinctly remember the dense lemony hit from this guy.... note the e-nail, no flame required
Well karma took care of us....Were true stoners really...always late..a dolla short and never on time...lol...
we didnt make 420 and didnt show till Sunday...but we were hangin with kind folk indeed...
and even tho busines is buis ...brothers are still brothers..and it showed and was felt by all who were around...
highlights for me was watchin BigBuddha burnin my cone..and teh compliment that followed...
And a few pics of other local Co gatherings...was a mind blast to say the least....
I didnt find somethin to knock me down tho...maybe next time...

THE schooting was at THE 420 rally, Not at THE htcc.
Almost everybody i have seen was having à great time, and it was THE best cup i have been too.
To explain THE US cup. Part. Of THE cup. It was open to enter by everybody from whole of US, Also non medical etc.
THE medical cup was only for Colorado medical company,s.
I was one of THE 3 medical indica judges, And can say. That THE 43 entry,s. In my categorie. Where high standard for shure, And THE winner. Shure deserved it. Skywalker OG. 600 cut. Was simpely delicius.
as for the cup being crowded (it was)
i look at it like this...
if you run a city and the biggest worste problem ur city has is heavy traffic, you are doing pretty good....
the cup had super heavy traffic.
no other complaints.
I have yet to be at a HT cup event that WASN'T overcrowded in a space too small... that's what it's all about it seems! Dirty and dangerous, wouldn't have it any other way... Haven't any of you been to Europe, to a rave, etc.?
ya brutha Payaso.....and I didnt see 1 person bitchin to be honest.....matter fact...I dont think I saw 1 frown on any faces even...just allot of sunglasses and shitty grins......lmao....
Hope the ICmag 420 Cup was also as fun..I looked and it looks as choice!....wow you guys have allot of herb!..overall I think we made the whole planet stink proper for a good day yall...stay kewl and always keep rollin!
