Title: Special Occasions 3.0 - Too many have gone by!
Post by: BewareDaPenguin on 05/16/2019 07:01 AM
Geeks! So it's been about 2 years since I did my last special occasions pass! And it was 3 years before when 1.0 started! So gauging interest in possibly starting up S.O. 3.0! I have to travel this weekend but Sunday was thinking about putting together 12-20 seed cigars, but wanted to gauge interest 1st before I set anything up, would be nice to get 8-10 players and we actually went around twice last time so gave everyone a second look at the box as it traveled so fast and it worked out really well!! You guys know the rules and if you don't then you probably don't qualify for the pass, veteran or higher status, blah blah blah it's typically a high priced box going around so we like "vetted" geeks to play, but if you think you qualify or have someone vouch for you I'm sure it's fine! Let's see who wants to play, check out the old passes to see how the went, I think everyone really enjoyed it and I had a good time reading the stories and watching all the amazing P & T"s!!! It's a wild one prices range from roughly $5 to over $120 so there's something in there for almost everyone, but the idea is obliviously a cigar that you tuck away for a special occasion such as a wedding, birthday, anniversary etc, again you can check the past 2 passes to get an idea! Well let's see who wants to play and if we get enough people, I've kept it just in the US because of customs and the value of the boxes we don't want to lose them!!! So again who wants to play!!

Oh gosh they all should still be in there lol, I'm not sure I just know we all had fun and there's gonna be some great cigars in the box I haven't smoked that much in the past year or so, so there's a lot of good sticks sitting in my humidor lol just smoked a Cohiba Sig 2 & Opus X Siglo when I went to The Masters last month so those are the types of cigars I'll plant in the seeds, some other seeds I have used are Tat monsters I like to smoke around Halloween obliviously and some of those aren't as expensive but still a special occasion cigar! The 1st Pass John put a Feral Pig because he smoked those on his wedding anniversary, and he did because his wife, then girlfriend I think said something to the effect of I'll marry you when Pigs Fly :biggrin: so again great cigars, great stories and great geeks have all played!

I'd love to participate, but with the summer season coming on and me living in AZ, I'd rather not put a pass through USPS into the desert south.

It's all good bro your in if you'd like, I'd think they'd be safe if nobody else has an issue I don't? I'd think they'd be ok if we communicate when it's going to arrive? Should be all good

If they would allow it and you feel strongly enough to vouch for me based on what you know about me from other sites, I'd love to join and become more involved in this community.
