Stony Awards

The Stony Awards (a.k.a. the Stonys) - sponsored by "High Times" magazine - celebrate the "highest and stoniest" movies and TV shows of the year. The Stonys began as an annual article in "High Times" magazine conceived by Senior Editor Steve Bloom. Editor-in-Chief Steven Hager then suggested they hold an event in New York and invite the public to attend. Three Stony Awards were held in New York City. In 2007, the Stonys were moved to Los Angeles.
