Both Teams in the Super Bowl Are From States That Legalized Marijuana

Colorado and Washington allow recreational marijuana use, and now the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks are going to the National Football League's biggest game.

Despite marijuana’s growing legalization -- medical marijuana is legal in 20 states, plus D.C. -- the National Football League bans marijuana use for all its players, even if they live in those states.

Marijuana falls under the league’s substance abuse policy, which is collectively bargained with the NFL Players Association.
