Quick question...Could the cigar be one purchased from another Geek or does it have to be a gift/bomb?

"Here's the deal, smoke a cigar that another Geek(member of this forum) has given you, complete a review for the cigar, post here with the cigar name and the Geek's name the gave it to you and you're entered. Easy right? Yep, that's it. Smoke, type, win cigars.

I limited the contest to Veteran Status or higher, which is 60 days on the site and 100 forum posts. Sorry you'll have to sit this one out, but you'll have all kinds of chances if you stick around.

I would prefer they were given to you, bombed or gifted or contest winnings....that being said, if you purchased a "fiver" but received 7 or 8 those extras could be considered gifts or if you bought a sampler for say $25 and ended up with double or triple that those "extras" could be considered gifts.

I'm not going to be doing background checks   :shy:
