They say, just like restaurant week or beer week, weed will be the thing that draws people from all over to San Francisco starting next week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a class=\"link  yahoo-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/articles\/petition-circulates-claiming-philz-coffee-214327792.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Petition circulates claiming Philz Coffee asked stores to remove Pride flags;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Petition circulates claiming Philz Coffee asked stores to remove Pride flags&quot;}\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> Petition circulates claiming Philz Coffee asked stores to remove Pride flags <\/a><\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Bear Waite blows up an inflatable joint with his wife Michelle for the annual 4\/20 celebration of cannabis on Hippie Hill at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, Calif. on Friday, April 20, 2018.
