The power of a cigar.

deaster25 · 02-18-2012, 01:34 PM

A couple of weeks ago I had went to a bon fire at a friends house and I took a few sticks with me to smoke with one of my friends that I knew liked cigars, well there was one guy there smoking a black n mild, so I asked the guy if he smokes cigars often and he said every once in a while so I told him that I would let him smoke a real cigar. I threw his black n mild in the fire and lit up a Surrogates Bone Crusher that I got from EricF in the NST, thanks for that by the way Eric. Well,+ the guy took the first puff and started almost choking because he was coughing so much, I said don't inhale it man, he relied I didn't, he took another and same thing, his reply was what the frick is that man? I just said that is a real cigar and kind of a strong one, he then called me mean and gave me the cigar back. After that I gave him a Tat Havana IV and he loved it and so did about 4 other guys there that had never smoked a cigar before. I also passed out a few Olivas that I had. The cigars were a hit and now one of my friends is ready to buy a humidor, even some girls there are wanting me to give them some cigars. It's great to see how I could get to know some people I have never met before just by sharing some great smokes with them.

I hope you're kidding about throwing his cigar in the fire...

BHalbrooks · 02-18-2012, 03:41 PM

You should buy a box of Punishers and give those out.

that's funny stuff with the bone crusher

ApexAZ · 02-18-2012, 06:03 PM

Well done, Dave! More enthusiasts is a good thing. Now introduce them to CA so we can school 'em a bit!

irratebass · 02-18-2012, 06:06 PM

Nice job Dave, but yeah a bone crusher is very strong cigar for a novice...heh, oh well at least he and others liked the TAT, that's a great sign that they have hope.

Nice. I am working on ruining a few people on cigars as well. Once you get a taste of something decent it is really hard to go back( as we all know)!
