I'm on vacation 9/9 - 9/13 and 9/23 - 9/28, so earlier on in the process would be more convenient for me as well. :)

I go on to Michigan tomorrow and will be back on Monday so I'm good to go after that
I used to sit outside all night and drink bud lite and smoke Marlboros and everyone thought I was a bum. Now I sit outside all night and drink craft beers and smoke cigars and everyone thinks I have class.

Ok so let me get this straight, the will be an actual box going from one individual to the next and the next person will not know they are next until they get hit? And you can take and put as you feel like from the box when you get it? Am I right???

 No it's going to be bombing practice. Say I send you 5 cigars you accept all 5 as a bomb. Then you pick your next person and send them what you want, so on and so on.  And correct the next person won't know they are next until they get their mail.

Just to clear this up, there is not box being passed around. Since it's only 5-7 smokes everyone can ship in their own box.  First class is fairly cheap takes only 1 extra day than priority. A small flat rate box works fine too. Or if the box didn't blow up in your mailbox you can reuse the one sent to you. Padded envelopes don't work well, I've had some come to me and the post office doesn't handle them very well.

Interesting idea, I am definitely in if there is still room. Great idea Brian.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Hey Brian, we were talking about this on the herf and you're going to have to find a way to handle how the first person that gets bombed is handled. We think you're going to need to take that person off the list as well as the person they bombed until the very end and the last person in the pass will bomb the first person to close the loop. Otherwise you will get situations where you're constantly needing to restart the pass because the loop has been closed prematurely and you need to restart fresh with someone who hasn't been bombed yet.

Go to the main page. On the right side, under Open Cigar Passes, click on "request to join" under Bombing Run Pass. 

You learn more by listening then you do from talking.

 You are absolutely right. So longhorn is starting and whoever he bombs (God rest their soul) will be the first person in the history, do fake puts and takes. Brad won't be the first person in transaction because he is still available to get bombed. I think Brad will have to be taken off the list and he will move to the very end.   I think this works.

Thanks for doing the pass do we send you the persons name first? Then you mark them off or does the person need to receive first.
