Title: Wake Up, its contest time!!!
Post by: Duker511 on 09/06/2008 01:02 PM
Im not sure if there is any interest, but this is my bad attempt at a Cigar Geeks scavenger hunt of sorts. It shouldnt be too hard, but you never know.

This is open to everyone. First one with all 10 right answers gets a grab bag of cigars  from me. :dancing:  All the answers are right in front of you, on this site, good luck.

1) On what date did I review the Cohiba XV 749?

2) Back in May, who sponsored the cigar event in Mckinney Texas?

3) What did the old farmer bring with him to bring back some fruit?

4)While in Columbus Ohio, who did Senor Pablo find out was a "big cigar fan"?

5) What cigar (brand and size) did Larry(ljlemer) pull out to celebrate his new Expert status?

6) What newbie claimed to be from the state with the "highest cigar tax in the nation"?

7) What kind of gin did Turboknat use in his Martini when he smoked his third Cuban Crafters Cameroon?

8) What brand of humidor was emind56 saving his pennies for?

9) According to Cigar Geeks, when you light your cigar with a "spill" what is a spill made from?

10) What bands name is on Piemans shirt when he did his drunk Kareeokee?

If you search around, you will easily find the answers. If nobody gets them by Monday at 5pm EST, the most right answers will win. :dancing:

Well, I gave running a contest a try. It turned out less than I expected, I guess with the lack of posting around here lately, people are busy. I will try more contests in the future. Thanks to the two guys that did play along, your cigars will be sent soon. :biggrin:

Then you'll get a lot of chat here on the site, because folks won't be able to get outdoors and enjoy as many smokes.
