Two former NBA players, Allen Iverson and Al Harrington, have come together to launch a new cannabis strain under the Viola brand. This strain, labeled the Iverson '01, is a reference to the 2001 season when Iverson won the MVP award and took the Philadelphia 76ers to their last NBA Finals appearance.
This Friday, September 2, Iverson and Harrington will be at the RISE in Philadelphia's Port Richmond to officially launch the new strain. Of course, to purchase the new strain, attendees must be valid Pennsylvania medical marijuana cardholders.
Harrington promoted the event via his Instagram account, sharing the news with his followers. The Iverson '01 strain promises to provide users with a “euphoric, balanced body and head high,” and will taste a combination of flowers, pine, orange, and hops. It will cost $45 for an eighth, while other strains will be available for $40.
This isn't the first time Iverson and Harrington have partnered up. They first started working together two years ago, launching the Iverson '96 strain, which was named after the year the 76ers drafted Iverson. The Iverson '01 was made available in New Jersey last month, where the 2001 NBA MVP and Harrington appeared at the RISE located in Bloomfield, New Jersey, on July 8.
With the launch of the Iverson '01, Iverson and Harrington hope to honor the legacy of the Philadelphia 76ers, and the memory of Iverson's time with the team. Fans of the 76ers, and cannabis enthusiasts alike, can look forward to this upcoming event in Philadelphia.
