I hope not (cigar release).  I would give it a 95% chance of occurring.  I give this thread a 5% chance of making it to the end of the day. Let's see who will be the first goober for a forum

Did I just hear the distinct CRACK of a can of worms being opened?

A Cohiba Presidente. Same size as the Partagas. Plain SLB of 25. It's a nice shape and size so there's fat chance of that happening.

There has always been a ban in Cuba regarding busts or statues of Fidel, also a ban on street names. It seems he wanted that ban to continue after his death.

There are plenty of murals and images though. It looked like there was a standard picture of him used for the funeral. The one of him standing on a hillside wearing a military radio backpack. It was all over Cuba and on display in the embassy here.

I know someone in Cuba who has a bust of Fidel. It was made in 1960 before the ban was enacted. He keeps it hidden as its technically illegal.

It's interesting enough I suppose, not many dictators ban statues of themselves or streets named after them.
