Had this headline come out a year ago, Broncos fans would have been over the moon… However, it’s 2023 and like it or not, the Broncos are stuck with Russell Wilson, and Aaron Rodgers is coming to Denver for a much different reason.

The quarterback, who is still a member of the Green Bay Packers for now is coming to the Mile High City to speak at a conference dedicated to all things psychedelics.

Psychedelic Science is coming to the Colorado Convention Center June 19-23 and it’s billed as “SXSW for Psychedelics.” It’ll feature lectures, workshops, and networking opportunities with some of the biggest names in drug research, advocacy, venture capital, and more.

It’ll also have some famous speakers of course. Joining Rodgers will be popular podcaster Tim Ferriss among dozens of others.
