Just wondering if anyone knows who won the Drac Ducati. There were a lot of people wanting the smokes and some who just wanted the bike. If I remember correct there were 13 unlucky ticket and then a drawing was to be held. Thought for sure that the winner would have been announced by now.

I think it was all put on hold because of complaints. Something about contests have to be no purchase necessary

Cancelled for legal reasons. There was a thread on it in this room.
I thought so to, but I can't find the post about it to save my life.

This is what i found on another site.....

"I sent an email to a sponsor of a contest.

My email:

Purchase is not required to enter any sweepstakes. If a "Spooky Ticket" is in a box of cigars, then a contestant is required to purchase cigars to obtain an entry, which is illegal, and can be reported to the Attorney General.

His reply:

Dear Mr Fullhart,

Thank you for your e-mail. Tatuaje never intended the Monster Give-Away to be a "sweepstakes." It was intended to be something fun and free for the holidays for customers. Purchase of a box wasn't required; the tickets were just randomly placed in boxes that customers would have been buying anyhow.

However, having made some inquiries today, it appears you may be right and conducting the give-away could nonetheless run afoul of certain laws. Thus, at this time, we've decided to cancel the give-away until the Company can seek some further counsel on it. If in the future we decide to conduct the Monster Give-Away or a similar event, we'll notify you about it.

Regards,
Pete Johnson
President
Tatuaje Cigars, Inc."

There was a legal issue... but...

I happen to know that Pete took care of every single person that had a spooky ticket... by sending them a BUNCH of Dracs and Boris and some nice swag.....

Just curious...how do you happen to know? Were you a ticket holder or was this a tribal knowledge type thing?

There have been posts on other boards detailing what was given....a whole bunch of swag, and 20 each of the Boris and Dracs is what was said by one of the ticket holders...

I didn't hear about what Pete and Tatuaje did for the golden ticket holder after the legal problem. 40 or more cigars and other stuff is very very cool, stand-up company.
