Also, if it looked like it had been sitting on the shelf for a good while that could be part of it. The moisture within the cigar itself could have settled down to one side of the smoke while sitting on the shelf, causing one end to burn slower than the other, though typically that only occurs after years of sitting and not being rotated.

The band could have been just a drop too much glue and just caught the wrapper enough to crack it when removing. Thats a common problem I have with Fuentes as they like to slather on the glue. The crack also could have contributed to the burn if it was on the same side as the end of the burn that was burning slowly.
