HOUSTON -- Several former NFL players associated with various advocacy groups are lobbying for the league to revise its policy on medical marijuana, currently on its list of banned substances.
Some interested parties hoping to change it hosted a cannabis convention in the heart of Houston, right in the middle of all the Super Bowl festivities. The event, dubbed “Cannabis in Professional Sports” and presented by Vapen CBD and Merry Jane, was held Wednesday at Live Nation’s Revention Music Center just ahead of Super Bowl LI.
“Cannabis in Professional Sports” event organizer Rory Mendoza said he felt Super Bowl week, with the nation’s spotlight shining on the city of Houston, was the perfect time to spread his message of what cannabis can do for current and former athletes alike.
