Queen Elizabeth II honored The Beatles with their MBE‘s medals
(Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) – at Buckingham Palace.

According to an account by John Lennon the group smoked marijuana in one of the palace bathrooms to calm their nerves. Many former recipients gave their MBE’s back in protest, to which John Lennon responded: “Lots of people who complained about us receiving the MBE received theirs for heroism in the war, for killing people. We received ours for entertaining other people. I’d say we deserve ours more.”
