And him talking to the crowd.
Dude was really cool for being a Pittsburgh fan an all.

Still, his cigars are good "poor man's cigars." Not too pricy, but some decent quality.
I hear he's got some new "white" cigars coming out. Curious what they'll taste like.
If you happen to ship a couple of them up my way, I'll pay you back! As far as I know, nobody here is carrying the white yet.Curly J;1440698 wrote:Just a bad pic of him as I don't believe he was even drinking.
As for the 'White' cigars I had 2 of them last night. Not including the one he handed me after I watched him put the wrapper on it. I liked it enough to buy a box of them. Believe it was $130.00 for the box.
Haven't has the 'Black' yet. I got 3 of them free when I bought the box along with a bag and a T-shirt. The Black will be available in a couple of weeks at the Jungle. I will check them out.

If it's not too much trouble.Curly J;1440990 wrote:I might be able to make that happen. Just the White? I can probably throw in a Black if you want.
I might be able to make that happen. Give me some time though as I have to have The Wife mail it off on her day off and I can't control that woman. I'll set back a black of my 3. Whites no issues. As I still have 26 of the 28 in the box.O-Trap;1440992 wrote:If it's not too much trouble.

I read that you might be in this area soon. Hit me up if you make it.
Well I got mine and half of her's. She wasn't as fond of the Pardon as the JC. She even paired the drinks with the sticks and had the little nose cleaner that was passed around by the host. Very proud of here as I went my own way and had a Leccia Black and a My Father. Oh I did finish her JC. Couldn't waste that one.O-Trap;1443482 wrote:As long as you get both Padron's you still win that deal. Good sticks.
However, I do find Diamond Crown to be an underrated cigar maker. I am particularly fond of their Maximus.

I think CI has some humidors on the cheap. Like $100 or less.Curly J;1452124 wrote:And it's a Leccia White to the rescue as I put out the Nub. Wasn't worth the effort to smoke it. Don't worry OTrap I still have a couple of the Whites set back for you along with a Black. I did see they have boxes of the Black in stock now at Jungle Jim's Cigar store. Might be my next Box purchase...I'm just digging' the Whites so much right now though.
I'm going to need to buy another larger humidor, just haven't been willing to pull the trigger on the purchase. I think I should get at least a 100 count for my 'almost everyday' sticks to reside in.
That was my second, maybe third try at a Nub and I've never had one I truly liked. Just thought I'd give it another shot as it came in the 3 pack I bought at a tasting. Never again though. Tonight is another tasting. Man I look forward to Thursdays.O-Trap;1453121 wrote:As for the Whites, I was just glad you put down the Nub. Was never over-impressed with any Nub I've had.

No rush. Pretty cool about the humidor, though! You should put a picture of it up here.Curly J;1453656 wrote:Might be true but I'd love to have the money he spent on his Seal tattoo. Oh and he loves the Leccia Whites as much as I do so we are both poor.
I believe I'm going to buy another box of the Whites now that that I have a place to put them, when I condition the new humidor. I just love them. White pepper through out the entire smoke. Weird how it doesn't change. Maybe that's what I like about it.
And now that I got a bigger humidor I do have a shipping container for your sticks to be sent in...one of these years.
