A few good choices there, kind a tie between Winston Churchill, George Burns, Groucho Marx and Samuel Clemens for me.

 

[Docbp87]

Hitchcock.

 

[Clint]

Jerry Garcia...LOL

 

[Treinenwj]

A lot of great choices, but I had to go with Bill Cosby. He's just so darn likeable, and ya can't beat the name Bill!

 

[SkinsFanLarry]

I'm going with Joe Pantoliano and Dennis Hopper! :cbig:

 

[BagfullofPings]

Of your list, I would have to choose Winston Churchill (#1 on the CA list you used). However, I would have to choose George S. Patton. He should have been #2, but he was #54 on the CA list.

Fictional characters: Thomas Sullivan Magnum and Jonathan Quail Higgins :smile:

 

[Cigar Cowboy]

George S. Patton

That would have been a great one.

 

[Thegreekone]

Sigmond Freud and James Gandolfini! :thumbsup:


p.s. Hitch was a GREAT addition!

 

[Greyghost]

George Burns, but a couple others were right up there.

 

[The BurgerMeister]

where's The BurgerMeister on that list?? :ballbounc

i went with Mark Twain. his book "What is Man?" was so inspiring and life-changing to me... gotta give the respect to that man.

 

[LiLo]

Gotta go with Snorky.

 

[VillageIdiot]

I chose Milton Berle because he kind of reminds me of my grandfather. Other than the listed people, I am my own favorite cigar smoker.

 

[Ed Monton]

Had to go with Winston Churchill for standing up to Hitler.

 

[InspektorGadget]

Lots of good choices, I went with Groucho just because...

 

[strife]

Jerry Garcia...LOL

Now if you had said Janny Garcia I would have to agree with you!

 

[Fox]

Never mind. . .did not read the poll carefully enough. Voted "other" before I realized my favorite, George Burns, was in the poll. . .:smokingco

Has to be JFK, great taste in cigars, screwed around with Marilyn, told the Soviets where to stick it, and said: “Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.”

Raul Julia is one of my favs as for actors. General Patton is my alltime favorite though.

Raul Julia is one of my favs as for actors.

Love this quote by him:

"Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace."
Raul Julia
