hmmmmm.... gotta be troop related, me thinks...

the 2 hour mission is confusing, otherwise I would think that they had challenge coins made for troop supporters and that they were selling them to raise funds for meeting shipping costs.

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!

"The latest & newest to be released Pete Johnson cigar, a 6X38 Corona Especial named the SODO and limited to 200 boxes 25 sticks to a box"

The troops holiday fundraiser raffle with a total of 7 prizes will soon hit the site. Stay tuned...

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Those look like the old Triumfador Lanceros to me. they are 1 1/2" shorter though. Strange. Wouldn't it be cool if the box had the letters "MY" on the lid to succeed the rest of the letters?

Troop raffle! WOOT!:noon

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Hrmm, interesting. Where are these being sold at? I'm a huge fan of the Triunfador Lancero for true...these look just as good!

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Ok that's the surprise. Hey I did my best to have a little fun here. I have a box that I picked up today from my friend who owns the retail store in Seattle that he made them for. The name of ther cigar comes from the location of the store in the Sodo area of Seattle.

Ok it's another Pete Johnson limited release but it's also a damn tasty cigar. Been in the works for quite some time.

With the help of David we are going to raffle off a fiver and six more 3 finger bags to raise a little cash for the troops holiday packages. It will be a fairly short raffle period with 7 winners.

Raffle details will hit the site pretty darn soon.

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Blended by Pete for the shop.

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Even more limited tatuaje?!?!?!?!

I so give up bothering to buy anymore tatuaje limiteds. They produce a new cigar every week.

Face, new pork tenderloins....now these...all if what 4 weeks?

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Hey papajohn... I was just at the shop tonight buying my own boxes and John told me about your purchase!?! :) These are great cigars so good luck with the raffle! The current crop of broadleaf wrapper that Pete is using makes these cigars very tasty... you guys will not be disappointed with these cigars...

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Hey I feel your pain.....and I know/knew many people might share your feelings but for me since day one that I was let in on this my brain said I have to grab this and turn this into something to benefit our troops program.

Had the opportunity to meet Pete at a lunch gig a number of months ago in Seattle when this cigar was being hatched out. Pete's a hell of a guy but also sharp when it comes to business. I really enjoyed the cigar I smoked this afternoon. :tu

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Lucky guy as these cigars are going to be gone fast. I was down there until around 4 this afternoon. John's a great BOTL both as a B&M shop owner and a friend. We have smoked a bunch of great cigars together. Had a Davidoff night last Wens. after having a great dinner up in North Seattle. Enjoy the cigars!!

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Oh yeah he's a businessman no arguing that. Although it really doesn't take much from where he is at. He's just gotta kick out 10-12 limited lines a year and rake in the cash.

For me, I'm no longer annoyed I just quit with Tatuaje. I won't bother dealing with the "catch the limiteds madness" and their regular line has been disappointing with me lately. There's only one cigar I'll buy from them.

But I definitely approve of what you're doing to support the troops! At least some good came out of yet ANOTHER limited tatuaje.

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Pete can fire out a limited release every month and I would be just fine with that. Great addition to the raffle!

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Can this not be another "hate on PJ" thread please? Nice idea on the raffle John and good of you to do. I still think it would be cool if the "SODO" was followed by "MY" on the lid though. If it was a full length lancero all of the letters could be right on the side!

Again, good job John!

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Man that's the area the Mariner and Sea hawks stadiums are in, I would love to get a box but realize it's unlikely. Were at a grand opening Pete was at I wonder if that is how and when this came together.

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Bravo Zulu John!:tu

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Thanks John for seeking this out and brining it to our attention. And of course, the raffle to come for the troops!:tu

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Great job brothers!

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

David's doing the heavy lifting on this as usual....plan on this time frame wise being a short raffle, something like 10 day's. Want to get this up and running quick so we can get some $$"s headed in Richard & Hugh's direction to cover the cost of non cigar Xmas stuff + help with the mailing costs to the troops.

I'm guessing David will have this up and running sometime tomorrow.

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

:tu Sounds Great, John! Thanks!:)

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Awesome, and thank you for doing this.

All Gunnery Sergeants named Jay get a merit promotion to Master Gunnery Sergeant with a promotion date of 1 October 2010. S/F! Paul:tu

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Wow, nice sticks. The suspense was killing all of us. Another good one PJ. -(P

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

Yup, will have the raffle up by this evening.

Re: Have A Big Surprise To Announce This Weekend!!
 

The cigars are probably nice, but I'm what some might call a box wh*re :r I think I would buy those just because I like the box!
