Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

ok, I have never seen this before, so I thought I should post it here..
I decided to smoke a cigar that I was sent for my bday, it turned out to be plugged and burned crooked so I decide to correct it by cutting a part of it off and relighting it...

I cut it and feel my cutter hitting something hard, I open the cigar up and a stone falls out...

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

WTF? My I ask what it was your were smoking? That sucks brother!

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Quit smoking those Gorilla Fingers!!!!

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

I have heard of stones in cigars but no one that large.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

a very old unbanded mystery cigar, it actually tastes pretty good, just never seen this before.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Holy chit. Was that one of the sticks I sent? :mad:

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Wow! How could that not have been put there on purpose! Do you think it was just a gag from the roller? Maybe pissed off that day?

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

How does that not pass some sort of quality control inspection? That is a pretty big rock in there..

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Too bad it was not a diamond.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

never buy monday cigars

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Unfortunately we'll never know much about the origins, since if that was the yellow-cello "mystery stick" I sent, it was from one of a number of estate buys and did not come with a box. They're in the category of "this is a cool old cigar from whoknowswhen, let's smoke it and see if it's any good", so I pass them out at herfs for sh*ts and giggles. I've never come across anything like that in one of those. Or in any cigar actually. :mad:

I feel awful about this. What cutter did you break?

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

I have no idea, but I hope to never encounter something like this again, this can mess up your day (and your swiss army knife cutter)

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

:r Or Friday's.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Don't feel bad about it, you could not have known, besides, its still tasty (yes I lit it after all this)

it actually took a chunk out of my swiss army knife.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Those rocks are good luck!!!

Make sure to keep that!!!;)













Actually that sucks!!!!:(

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Tainth, Smokey actually used his diamond encrusted platinum Dunhill cutter for this stick...and is shattered in a million pieces! :r

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

That would suck, since I'm looking for a merchant local to him to see about a replacement. :(

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Hope it wasn't a kidney stone.:tu

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

No, there is no need to replace anything, you know I have more then one cutter, besides, according to wanger you are not the only one looking to replace it :p

You couldn't have known and I am gratefull for a chance to try these old cigars, that I would otherwise never have access to.
Besides, I tried smoking rock now and know its not for me :p

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

So I gotta know...does rock get better with age? :r

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

I could not compare, never had rock before, never will after this I hope

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

That is crazy. I was at a herf and a friend was telling me how last week he was smoking and had a bead come out (one of the hair beads). That was enough to make me sick.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Dude... your cigar ROCKS! :banger

Sorry... bad joke. Glad you could still enjoy the stick. :ss

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

nah, I can laugh about the joke so its pretty good :D

the cigar is pretty tasty, almost burning my knuckles smoking it

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

So you decided to smoke rock but found you didn't like it until you cracked your cutter.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

but is the smoke purple?

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Glad you're enjoying the cigar anyhow!

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Obviously it was a (Rock)y Patel! :r

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Now that is funny right there! :r

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Looks like a Madagascar Vanilla nugget!!! :dr

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

The rock is called a "heating stone" made to ensure that your cigar is at optimal temperatures during smoking. End of thread. ;)

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

I have seen this one other time when I was smoking a Thompson's 'cigar' given me by my brother in law. The stone was no where as large as this one though.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

I've heard the rumors/urban legends of military armorers shipping home a weapon piece by piece. Maybe that roller was trying to steal the factory a little at a time and relocate to the States! :D

Sorry 'bout your cutter but you ended up with a good smoke anyway, as well as a good story and souvenir.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Must have been a Cohibo!

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

trust me, it's cheaper to buy it in the US and send it over. For example, a Palio cutter is about 35 bucks in the US and triple that price here.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Petrified beetle?

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

I have found plastic a twine in cigars but never rocks...

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

That's suck bro

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

What the?...

I've had long hair, plastic threads, and a small metal nail.....but a freaking rock? I can just see the rollers at the local cantina, " What did you guys roll in the cigars today?" " I put in some plastic threads", "me?.. I put in some long hairs from the woman next to me!", "Oh, yeah?! I put in a rock! Lets see that Gringo suck on that cigar. HAHA!"

You are now the Charlie Brown of CA.....you got a rock.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Lol the Charlie Brown of CA :p

still not clear how it got there, but it does keep smoking cigars exciting, like the prizes they pit inside boxes of cerial

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Hahahhahahahaha that is too funny... how in the hell could something like that happen? Man the roller must be pretty pissed off!

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Crazy! I had a strip of blue tarp in a Monte #2... :r

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Stay away from the ROCK Simon!!!!

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

still better then gorillafingers :p

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

You sure it was a tarp and not a piece of a rubber raft? :r Sucks to hear about a rock especially THAT big in a cigar. I know Hal knows about thread but a rock wow, just wow

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Simon...you'll get no arguement from me on that one!!! NONE AT ALL!!! I would rather smoke a PILE of rocks than to have to light another of those up!!

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Your Swiss Army cutter has a lifetime warranty if it's a Victorinox or Wenger so just mail it off to them and they'll either repair it or replace it (they usually just replace it) and all you're out is the shipping.

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

:r:r

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

Neat lol sorry for your trouble though, glad you can laugh about it :D

Re: Cigar pasing stones... WTF???
 

A whole new meaning to "Smoking rock!"
