When asked if he liked the experience, he added, “I loved it. And after we stayed there in that room smoking, I went out to the hotel’s living room and we had forgotten that we requested bedroom service. Then a guy came in pushing some strollers with food for the four of us, and it was like, ‘Ah, ok!’ [maconha] leaves you with a little ‘Larica’. ”
However, two things that were certainly not on the menu that night were pizza and curry, as Ringo admitted that he never ate either because of his food allergies.

Paul McCartney had already said that Ringo was the first of the Liverpool band to smoke marijuana, while the other Beatles members John Lennon and George Harrison were being “good boys,” but the drummer’s reaction made everyone want to try it too.
In an interview with Uncut magazine, Paul recalled: “I don’t know if he would like me to tell that, but there he goes. It was at Delmonico Hotel at Park Avenue in New York, August 1964. We were in a room, all being good boys, taking our whiskey with Coca-Cola, I think it was a post show party. Dylan arrived and went to the room. Ringo went to see what was happening. Then he saw Dylan by ballotishing a based and tragped. He came back and we asked, ‘How was it?’ Then he said, ‘The ceiling is kind of coming down’. We all run to the room saying, ‘Give us a little, give it a little.’ So that was the first night we got stoned. ”
