I stole this idea from Jesse52. J, I hope you don't mind. How about this:

Whom ever receives BEST gifted cigar this year for X-mas, wins something from me. I have alot to give away, be it cigars, cutters or pipe tobacco. You can start posting your pics now. But please, don't go out and buy a XXXXXXXi just because you know it will win. Contest over on Dec 24, ,,,,,,,say 2000 hrs. Post pics and discription only. Please, no threadjack. GOOD LUCK!!!
 
Ya know, after I thought about this, I decided this wasn't appropriate. I mean, afterall, it is a gift, and its the thought that counts. Some people may not have the knowledge to buy cigars as gifts. Most will go into a store and find the "prettiest" band and buy that one. So instead, lets fo the BEST cigar present. How is that??
 
CRAPWEASEL!!! Thought I had a good shot!

Um...ok, since I will not be getting any cigar presents from family or friends, do gifts to ourselves count??? :D :D :D
 
I guess. We can all just put pictures of the cigars we get here.

Hey someone else that says CrapWeasel.
 
Capt, I haven't received it yet, but I just remembered my wife bought me the C3PO ceramic bust to match my Darth Vader humidor. No pics yet, but soon! :D :D :D

(She, of course, has no idea I have turned Darth into a humi! She thinks I'm keeping candy on my desk for employees. Muwahahaha!)

((Red, CRAP WEASEL is the BEST non-cursing curse word!))

I don't know.....I'm kinda partial to DAGNABIT or FUSCHNIKINS
 
I'm a fan of "what the crap?!" and "freaking crap!"


sometimes I'll combine then like so: "what the freaking crap?!?"



back on topic...I haven't recieved any gift cigars yet.
 
i gifted myself a box of el cobres and a box of brazilia gols. i win!
 
I've not recdieved any cigars yet. Can I claim the God Of Fire I bought for myself for Xmas, from Chris as a "Best" christmas cigar. I know its cheatin, but I thought I'd try.
 
I have a feeling DD has a damn good chance of winning this contest haha
 
Yeah......

I cannot download a picture yet, but my kids got me this HUGE round brown glass cigar ashtray from the 60's(?), 70's(?) It holds 4 cigars, you know that one I mean it about 7 inches across, and about an inch high, and weigs about 5 pounds.

Found it in a local antique shop, and it will make a fine addition to my smoking lounge. I will post a picture when I figure out how to do that with the new camera!
 
Damn - I am sure I would of won this one!

I was gifted 2 - Vegas Robania from the special Humidor.
There were only 83 humidors made each holding 83 cigars.
These were made in 2000 (I think) for his 83rd B'day
I'd never seen one before they showed up in the mail.
I posted pictures on another thread -
really a treasure!
