In the 1970s, two men known as Cheech and Chong were born into poverty. They spent their childhood in the same town, but by the time they were grown up, they had very different lives. Cheech lived with his brother and mother in a very small house, and he worked to support his family. He spent his spare time hanging out with his friends, which also happened to be the friends of Chong.

Cheech and Chong met again in the 1970s, when they were working in a restaurant in Los Angeles. They were discussing the possibility of opening their own business, and they decided to make it a marijuana store. In fact, they had plans to start a marijuana business in the 1970s, but it didn't happen. When they decided to try again, this time with marijuana, they found that the business was booming.

They opened their first shop in San Diego and began to make money. This was the beginning of a long journey that would lead to the creation of a marijuana empire.

The first shop was a small place, but with time, it grew into a huge marijuana store.
