Party foul!

[StogieNinja]

So last Tuesday evening, I went to smoke some cigars with my pastor, some of the other men from my church, and some visiting Russian pastors we're hosting.

I brought my 18ct Herfador so there would be some quality smokes available, and we all had a good time. There was the usual mix of real cigar smokers, casual smokers, and guys who smoke as a novelty at these types of gatherings.

As I was getting ready to leave someone closed my Herfador and handed it to me. I didn't get around to opening it until this morning. Upon opening, I found this :

Apparently someone saw this barely smoked cigar and decided it should be saved. The smell was awful. Fortunately almost all the good stuff was smoked just evening, so only a few bargain sticks were in there, but the plastic and foam smell wretched! And this is my favorite Herfador with my BoTL tax sticker on it. Really hoping airing it out and washing the foam fixes everything...

Holy Moley! No good deed goes unpunished for sure there!

At least they didn't put it back in there while it was still lit.

When good intentions go wrong........

Hard to get too upset when someone was trying to be frugal and helpful. Hope the smell comes out.

Oh, not upset. More just bewildered/bemused.

Lol someone once put like half a pcr I had left outside the picnic tables at work in the side compartment of the backpack I take and my bag smelled so bad.

This has happened to me before. Letting it air out for several days was sufficient, but the partially smoked cigar in mine was only there for maybe 12 hours.

I think it's very cool that you can herf with your pastor and church members.

So do I!

In fact, once a month a bunch of guys from two local churches get together at my friend Terry's place for a huge herf. One of the highlights of every month for me.

So, did you smoke the cigar they were kind enough to save for you?

Hopefully airing it out will work. Might need to replace the foam, but the plastic can't really be hurt. I'd set it outside for a day let the sun hit it. At night, close it up with some baking soda/charcoal inside. Sorry that happened, but at least it sounds like you had a fun night!

My other question - was it even your cigar? Or did someone think you'd want to smoke someone else's left overs?

Lol.... nooooo.

No idea what whoever it was was thinking, but it definitely wasn't my cigar!

I once left a half smoked cigar (in a ziplock bag, which I planned to pick up smoking when we got to our destination) in the girl's $1k+ Louis Vuitton purse, forgot about it until the next day and it reeked. After much research this worked after several days, wipe it down with water, then leave dryer sheets in it. I'd leave it open as well, but the dryer sheets will absorb the smells.

I do that all the time. Good aging technique. That way you get a taste of the fresh cigar and a taste of the aged one.
