Bob Dylan introduces The Beatles to marijuana
In August 1964 The Beatles meets Bob Dylan for the first time. Dylan is shocked to discover that they're pot virgins and decides to introduce them to miss Mary Jane.
Ringo was the first to try it and he started laughing quite a bit, this made the others want to get in on it. They soon did and there were laughs all around. Paul McCartney was particularly thrilled by marijuana. He said "I'm thinking for the first time, really thinking." He had his friend and roadie Mal Evans follow him around writing down everything he was saying for posterity. Evans kept these notes until his death in 1976. Unfortunately they were confiscated and lost by the police.
