Careful with those cigars...

Footbag · 04-30-2009, 09:54 AM

Pulled a Juan Lopez out of my humidor last night and clipped it. Went to touch it to my lips and it slipped out of my mouth. Reached down to grab it and it got stuck between my belt and arm. Next thing I know, the cigar is broken in half. Nothing I'm gonna do to fix this one.
Threw it in the trash, and fortunately had another one to light up. This is the first time this happened to me in years. Moral of the story, careful with those cigars.

I hate moments like that... I dropped one in the toilet once. It was only a Padron X000 but still, I was heartbroken.

...the relight was a *****.

Never dropped a smoke but dropped ash on a new $50 camp shirt...burned a hole in it.

I saw someone drop a cigar a few times and still tried to salvage it at a herf. It was not a pretty sight.

Are you sure you fished out the right "cigar?"

Well, come to think of it the flavor profile changed dramatically post-submersion... you wouldn't be suggesting? ... no. Impossible.

Whatever, finished with a nice hint of spice and a definite kick of barnyard flavor.

I wish I could blame it on booze.

But it was pure negligence on my part.

Throwing it in the trash was hard. I kept trying to think of a way to salvage it. I was going to take the remaining 2 inches and light it, but I didn't want to deal with an unraveling cigar or relight another smoke in 10 minutes.

Dropped a lit cigar while driving once and it burned a hole in my shirt. I had to go back to the office and MacGyver my shirt closed with a stapler so my washboad stomach didn't distract the female coworkers.

Had a Alec Bradley Tempus torp in my chest pocket and getting out of my car I bumped against my car door just enough to hear a heartbreaking "crack" the wrapper cracked too bad to smoke it

I was having one this afternoon and went to grab the hose to wash off the sidewalk. Well SOMEONE (coughwifecough) left the sprayer nozzle on, so when I turned on the faucet I almost soaked the smoke! I turned around fast enough though and only got soaked pants.

This is a scary thread!!!

I snapped a Party de Party #1 in half going out the door about 3 weeks ago.
The screen door caught the tip and folded it in half.
I almost cried it was 9 years old when it died.......

BigAsh · 04-30-2009, 02:33 PM

One time I.....nah, never happened to me....you guys suck!....

P.S. "OUCH" on that 9 year old Party #1....

Had a Blackberry and Padron 64 Principe in my jacket pocket and sat on it. The Blackberry was ok...
