LOL you got it, not a thing wrong with Gurkha. Just giving kuzi a hard time.
The high yesterday was exactly 82 and it rained on and off the entire day. So kuzi is the winner! I'm still waiting on part of the prize to come in, so it'll most likely be Monday or Tuesday before the package goes out. There will be a few extra RP's in the package for guessing the rain.
Cool. I thought about a bunch of different thing but then I started looking around gauging the IQ of the group here and thought I better make it easy .... LMAO, I'm just kidding!!
Seriously I saw on a different forum where someone did the win percentage of their favorite baseball team on the day the hit 1000 and this idea spawned.
i have, sitting in my lap, the box that i won in maddys 1000th post contest. it is un-opened at this point.
this is being typed AS i open it. all reactions are first impressions. here we go: first off the box is huge. it looks to be 12x14x3 (ish) ill be amazed if there is a 14 inch cigar. out comes the knife from the pocket (gerber for those of you that care) ... or this thing is not knife condusive... you know whatever... but there is a pull tab. holy paking peanuts batman. ill get the broom later. bubble wrap. now i can use my knife. first out: Uptown classic series 300. for those who are not familiar, its a case for cigars. there is room for 8 credit/bank cards and a driver's licence. (you think im made of money? ) its a day case for the "not outdoorsman". in other words, when i dress up and i want to look nice and have cigars for myself and a friend i have this to carry instead of a giant herfador. it could easily fit in a suit pocket. very classy. very me. very happy i guessed crappy weather for the contest. that in itself would be a great prize.
BUT WAIT! theres MORE!. on to the cigars... ive only had one of the cigars.. thats right the gurkha titan. BRILIANT!!! the remaining: cohiba red dot carona? robusto? corona. looks to be about 5.5 x 47 er 8; montecristo media noche edmundo (sweet!); nording by rocky patel toro. thats gotta be a 55+ ring on that puppy. Nicarao piramide. never heard of it but its Nicaraguan and thats a good thing. it smells good. and finally a Rocky Patel 2008 summer collection. that is one nice looking cigar. I havent been this excited about a RP since the sungrown.
damn. thats one sweet prize. im gunna have to make the prize for mine even better just to come close to this. thank you so very much.
Damn maddy you know how to hook a brother up !! And kuzi is as lucky as a dog with two...Umm, Tails! Thanks to both of you for all that you bring to this forum.
it is more functional. just wouldnt be good for me at work. but i go to visit my father in law enough that im sure i will use it. probably this sunday. I can give that clunky old xikar one a rest and use it for its original intention: backpacking
By the way Kuzi the Nicarao(pronounced Nik-ar-ow) is by RP as well and is a Nicarguan Puro. And the Nicarao and Nording were for guessing that it would rain. The rest is for the temp. That Summer Collection is bad -@ss, habano wrapper with a cameroon binder. I did change it slightly from what anyone else would've got. I took out a RP Olde World and put in the Monte Media Noche, my last one so enjoy it!
I bet the wife likes the new case better than the ol' herfador. I know mine does .
