Tailgating and Cigars Article - Featuring Yours Truly!

[Powers]

Several months ago I was contacted by a writer for Tailgater Monthly Magazine who wanted to interview me as part of an article about cigars and tailgating. He said he saw one of my pictures here on CA of a buddy and I enjoying cigars while tailgating for the Florida-Georgia game several years ago and was interested in my perspective as a college football tailgater. I of course agreed and offered him some of my experiences and thoughts about my times enjoying stogies while tailgating at the University of Florida as an undergraduate ('06-'10) and currently at Clemson in graduate school ('10-'12).
Unfortunately I was not aware the article came out in last month's May/June issue, but he provided me a link to the article:

I'm pretty humbled to be included in the article :banger

Oh, and that other "cigar-smoking Florida fan" in the article who pushed me down the slope is Aldrin (s0leful0ne) :tu

Now the three cigars Armeno discusses - Pedrone, Perdomo, and Petin...strange. Undoubtedly someone got lost in the translation.

Also for you though, Powers. Hopefully you weren't mis-quoted.

Cool stuff!

That magazine is pretty neat as well, didn't even know there was a tailgating magazine.

Sweet! Nice to have a positive mention of cigar smoking in a non cigar related publication. Way to represent!
