A different type of pass?

A thought for a pass.
I was thinking about a pass.
Not your ordinary pass.
The box would be filled with paper bags of cigars with numbers on them.
The bag tops stapled shut.
With 3-5 cigars each bag.
You would take a bag and put a bag.
Kind of a grab bag type of thing, but it could still be fun.
Anyways, just a thought.

Feel lucky, well do ya? ROFL!
I would think that the honorable thing to do would be wait til you did your puts, to open it.
That's something that we'd have to work out as a group, I suppose.
We want it fun, a chance and like a bit of a treasure hunt.
It doesn't have to be restricted to cigar though.
Other things could be added to the bags. Cutters, matches and things like that.
Really, it's in the thought process right now.
Wonder if there's a way to do it on a smaller scale. Like maybe sending a larger Priority Mail box with three or four sealed small boxes inside. Take one box, put one box, then mail to the next person?
Seems like maybe boxes would stand up better over the course of the pass.
That is pretty do-able. Probably only gonna be able to get 4 or 6 boxes in one box, but that is definitely a really good idea. And if the boxes are packed right, it would be hard for folks to try and determine what is in it. LOL!
I'm in if you'd have me.
Put mystery teasers on it.
Or simply put "mystery box, pick at own risk" or "other" LOL!
And there is that bit of mystery to it.
I'm not much of a "pass" person, but I saw this idea from one of the wife's friends and thought that with a little modifying, it could work for us.
To be honest, I didn't think it would go over this well.
But I think with all the input, this could be a very fun thing.

2: We don't listen to Randy
With the stipulation that the teasers be pretty vague and not give an indication as to what is in the box?
This is the good thing about kicking around ideas.
I see the concern though. If someone put's "ISOM" or "cutter" on a box, you know that box will be the first thing grabbed. So if we allow teasers, we'll have to come up with an acceptable list of words that can be used.
Which brings up the next logical question. The person at the end of the pass order will receive 4-6 boxes. What do they do with the extras? Keep them (if so, put me last please)? Return them to the originator of the pass? Donate them to Sticks for Soldiers?
Just a few random thoughts...
This "grab bag pass" would be on a much larger scale. Whoever starts it would have to fill the first batch of boxes. Whoever's last on the pass list would end up with a surplus. Simplest "fix" it seems would be to have the pass go "full circle" so that the surplus returns to the pass originator.
May take me a little time to get it all set up. But I'm willing to set it up and get it going if it sounds good.
But hearing more ideas on it or what you think is great!
One thing to add. I really don't want this to be a "he got premiprems and I didn't", so I think we need to make it so these will be baseline cigars. Not cheapies, but not opus. If you choose to throw premiprems in, great. If not, great.
I suppose we can number the boxes, take pics of everything before you ship, then the next guy can compare images when he receives it?
Each person puts their number on the boxes as we go?
Dunno.
