Guys,  Here are the rules - all the answers to the 10 questions are found on the Cigar Geeks site somewhere.  I have mentioned some people by name, obviously if they can remember what they said that will be an easy one.  I have also included 2 extra credit questions that can be found on the Internet (but are pretty obscure, I think).  First one to get all 10 wins.  In the event of a tie, I will take into account the extra credit questions, but those are still bonus.  

Here we go:

1.  Which 8 1/2" cigar was given a 3 star rating?
2.  What did shawneous name his second son?
3.  What special thing did tnt956 receive from free from someone he knows?  List all 3.
4.  Who claimed that Don Pepin Garcia doesn't speak a word of English?  Hint, this member met him at a cigar event.
5.  According to the site, what is the definition of a Tapado?
6.  Who did Jonathan Drew personally give 2 cigars and take on a guided tour of his factory?
7.  If you are going to be in Philadelphia, which cigar place do you have to make reservations?
8.  What was the first ISOM I reviewed here?
9.  What are the types and names of ALL of Duker511 pets?
10. What ingredient does Dave Barry say would drop cigarette sales?

EXTRA CREDIT:

1.  In which game did Barrack Obama throw out the first pitch?  The teams?
2.  Who is Hillary Clinton's (and Bill's) favorite English soccer team?  Their nickname?

GOOD LUCK to ALL!!!

If I win this contest it just proves that I have far too much time on my hands. But I am sure the smoking would be good. :biggrin:

Holy Crap!! I am way too intimidated to even begin to start to think about whether I should even consider the idea of pondering the question of taking a crack at it. Good luck to those who will try!

How the hell did you gather the answers to formulate the questions?

Do you guys really think this is too hard?  I can revise the questions....  I wasn't trying to kick everyone's ass - I was just trying to make it a bit challenging.

Dominiqu No. 52 got a 3 star rating

Ken Kelley

Don't have time to search anymore since I have to go take a shower and get ready for a meeting tonight.  I'll just have to leave Bob to find his mistakes and hope he doesn't.   Maybe we'll tie!
