Best personal Cigar Bloopers

[El Presidente]

This is for all those out there who feel like Pierce Brosnan with a cigar but for one reason or another end up looking like Woody Allen due to a cigar Faux Pas

My favourites:

No 1. Went to kiss my departing sister in law on the cheek late after Christmas lunch, forgot I had a cigar in the side of my mouth and burn't her on the nose. Nothing serious mind you....there may have been alcohol involved

.

No 2. The now infamous Montesa Impala Motor bike slalom around the front yard of my house...cigar in hand...no helmet...belly full of red wine. I would have made it if not for those sheep droppings :-|

No 3. Throwing an almost finished cigar from the top deck of Czar House onto the garden below....only for it to land on the bonnet of Dean's Mercedes Benz.

Any clangers of your own?.....please......anyone?

[Colt45]

I was reclining on my deck, catching some rays, when I dropped an ash on my

stomach. Normally no big deal, but I wasn't wearing a shirt, and the hot end of

the ash hit the skin. Had a scar for a couple of months.

There was no alcohol involved, which seems to be a common denominator with

your "mishaps".

hmmmmmmm................

[Professor Twain]

I too have a cigar scar on my belly, good thing that the belly was there to catch that hot ash, the scar there is better than having one below the belt.

[Colt45]

» the scar there is better than having one below the belt.

True that. If I hadn't been lying down, it could have been much worse.

I got a good one, and recent too!

Couple weeks ago I stroll into my bathroom with a particularly enjoyable PSD4. As I finish relieving myself I reach for the handle to the toilet and drop my stogie right in the bowl so I can flush it! Not an accident mind you, I actually thought, "I can't flush this damn thing without dropping this!"

Seriously???

[Little Steve]

a good friend of mine was infamous for droping his cigar. it happen almost every time for about a year. so he start rating his stogs with a drop rating, meaning how well they took the fall

[chef2275]

i have a couple, Last night sitting at the bar and watching the baseball game a lady was sitting next to me and the ash fell into her purse. That was on the floor. Did not say anything to her. Also which i probably should not tell...was working out in the yard and went into the shed to grab the chainsaw, while reaching for the chainsaw my cigar hit the shelf and jabbed it down my throat. Dont tell anybody about that. lol.

Sorry Rob, can't relate. I'm the Humphrey Bogart of cigar smokers.

[Mel]

1. Dropped my cigar on the dog and burned some of its hair off.

2. Stuck the lit end of the cigar in my mouth- not for long. SOB.

[DocRKS]

A buddy and I were having a Cigar at the bar of a brew pub where cigar smoking was allowed when 2 women - both of whom were smoking cigarettes - sat next to us and informed us that they really did not appreciate the smell of cigars with their drinks and were very surprised that the establishment allowed cigar smoking. They informed us that they would appreciate it if we would either put the cigars out or finish them outside.

I meant to say, "Of course dear ladies, we will certainly agree with your request and we are very sorry our cigars were offensive to you." However, the Cigar Blooper took hold of our minds and reason and we accidentally said, " Go %* Yourself.."

They reported our outburst to the bartender who basically told them the same thing - They got up in a huff and left - I gave the bartender a Siglo III for being a stand-up guy !!! See, it pays to be nice. :-)

[PorscheC4S]

I managed to go full circle from Pierce Brosnan, to Bronson Pinchot (T.V.'s Balki) and back again. I was at my newlywed friend's house with him and his new bride. We were in the study that had a very nice persian rug.

I somehow dropped my robusto, lit foot down, like a bomb, right onto the rug. She let out a scream as I quickly picked up the cigar and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I think....yep,... it's still lit." She then gave me one of the smelliest stink-eyes I've ever seen. Fortunately for him and me, they've gotten divorced.

[broozer]

i've had the usual dropped ashes on my knees and arms before and that sure doesn't feel good. although the funniest thing i think has ever happened to me was years ago when i was smoking and had the cigar clinched in my teeth while typing something on the computer. i just happen to have a coffee mug full of coffee inbetween my arms and suddenly i heard a "splash!!!" sound. sure enough i looked down to see a HUGE bit of ash had fallen right into my coffee cup.......all of it. there wasn't even a small amount of ash around the cup.

ever since then i won't put my coffee cup in front of me while i type and smoke.

I remember a story you had told me about a certain cuban restaurant in the North Jersey area where an old lady had complained about the smoke during a cigar gathering of the NY-NJ boys.

The proprietess had told the lady if she would like the food she had ordered transferred to another table or if she would like it wrapped "to-go".

I always love their food and ambience.

:-D :-D :-D

This one's not so much a blooper as it is a "You know you're a true 'Friend of Habanos' when..."

Here it goes.

I used to be a DJ at a club/pool hall/bar. Whenever I played, I always had to smoke a cigar or two. This one night I was playing, I was enjoying a nice Habano when all of a sudden, it started to unravel. "Oh no! This can't be happening!", I thought to myself. So me being the quick thinker that I am, I reached into my equipment bag and pulled out the first solution that can to mind... duct tape.

Long story short, I finished my strategically well-taped cigar till the end of my set.

p.s. Tasting Notes: Well-balanced with earthy tones, spice, nuts, and hints of glue.

The end.

Hehe. Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures, right? Might I respond with a quote by the great Mr. Robert De Niro from the epic film, A Bronx Tale.

"The saddest thing in life is a wasted Habana." .... or was it "talent"?

Ah, who keeps track of these things anyhow?

:-)

[Tony Maduro]

I think I just spit out a little bit of my lunch.

[CWS]

Ah yes. A beautiful, well aged Cohiba Esplendido, a warm night, stars etc. Set down out on the patio to enjoy this cigar. It lit well and drew like a dream. Wonderful flavor. Smoked about an inch a casually went to ash the cigar in my outside ash try without looking. An agonizing hiss of steam as I realized the ash try was full of water from the sprinklers. Damn. Gone.
