* WebVideo/JimBrowning, a scambaiting [=YouTuber=], has a video titled "Making life hell for [=TomTom=] scammers", in which "[[Characters/FrozenAnna Queen Anna of Arendelle]]" makes a complaint about her purportedly malfunctioning "[=DeskJet=] 420". It is by no coincidence that such a printer exists, albeit a legacy model dating from the Windows 9x era, though the printer model was chosen due to the number's association with cannabis.

* ''VideoGame/PokemonGo'': Possibly unintentional, but the Community Day event for April 20, 2024 (or [[FunWithPalindromes 4/20/2024]]) was for Bellsprout, a Grass/Poison-type Pokémon, and if evolved into Victreebel during the event, it learns the move "Magical Leaf". For bonus points, Bellsprout is the [[LOL69 69th]] Pokémon.



* ''VideoGame/DreamDaddy'': If the Dadsona tries impressing Lucien with his knowledge on drug lingo during his second date with Mat, he stumbles on the drug number and says "520" instead of "'''4'''20", making Mat unimpressed.

* A popular Website/{{Vine}} has a girl assume her brother is smoking weed (he's holding a crayon), so she calls the police by [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext dialing 911 on a microwave.]] The sequel video has the brother [[JustTheIntroductionToTheOpposites spot his sister with the police and "call the weed" by dialing 420 on the microwave]].
* Website/YouTube cover artist Jonathan Young's [[Music/SmashMouth All Star]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBYgAujsd1w cover]] was intentionally made to be as meme-y as possible, and thus was made to last exactly 4 minutes and 20 seconds, with padding mid-song to reach that specific mark.

* In ''VideoGame/FrogFractions'', one possible answer to a history question in the PopQuiz is, "420. I swear, they counted them twice, that's not just a pot joke." Like most of the other answers in this quiz, it doesn't make much more sense in context.

* There is an unofficial holiday on April 20th, aka 4/20 in the American month-day system, where people celebrate the act of consuming weed and advocate the legalization of marijuana. Coincidentally, April 20th also happens to be [[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler Hitler]]'s birthday, which has naturally resulted in many jokes being made involving Hitler and weed.

* Music/BobDylan's 1966 ''Music/BlondeOnBlonde'' song "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" has the famous refrain "EverybodyMustGetStoned" (the TropeNamer). The fact that 12×35=420 is a coincidence, because the [[UnbuiltTrope 420 trope hadn't been invented yet]].
