ROLL ANOTHER NUMBER: POT BOARD GAME A HIT

Aspen has evolved into a hub of Colorado's marijuana industry, at 
least in a homegrown board game called Colorado Cannabis Craze.

The game was created by two partners in Louisville-based Hilljack 
Entertainment on April 20, 2011, but sales didn't really light up 
until voters passed Amendment 64.

The board game sends two to six players on a journey around Colorado 
while rolling dice. They must acquire six strains of cannabis from 
eight eligible cities and towns so they can sell to a dispensary in 
Denver and make their way to Denver International Airport with $1 
million. There are pitfalls along the way, including stops by the 
"Colorado Highway Patrol" and rivals' raids on their stash.

"It's really a game of strategy," co-owner Mike Ginwright said.
