So that leads me to ask, do you leave your band on when smoking or take it off? In addition, why?

Does anyone else feel like I just asked a test question?

Now I have to worry if my cigar band offends anyone? ROFLMAO!! I just posted my thoughts on how far we have gone down this "do not offend anyone" road in another post.

Now that I think of it the guys that smoke the really great cigars here would be offended if they saw what I smoke. I'll take the bands off from now on guys I sure don't want to offend you.

I leave mine on unless I'm smoking at work and we don't sell them.

I leave it on until the burn gets close to it then I take it off and save it. I like for people to leave their bands on. That way I can see what they are smokin and ask them about it if it's a stick I haven't tried before.

Sometimes on, sometimes off... no rhyme or reason here.
