As many as 10 “supermodels” are handing out hugs and 10,000 free marijuana joints at a cannabis convention ending Wednesday at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina.
But according to San Diego’s Brad McLaughlin, CEO of an online medical marijuana marketplace behind the “pop-up” promotion, some of the hundreds of vendors need hugs the most.
“Some of the biggest players in the marijuana industry pulled out of this event,” said McLaughlin of BudTrader.com.
