Hell, I clicked on the link a couple of times this morning before realizing that I had been duped.

Good one on their part.

Kind of like this:

Kids waiting in anxious anticipation as their mother is going through some complicated surgery, for a very serious condition:

The Doc finally exits the surgery room, after several hours of surgery. He appears exhausted and disheveled, his scrubs are covered with blood.

Anxiously the kids ask, "So Doc, how did it go? Will Momma be alright?"

The Doc responds, well, it was touch and go for the longest time, It was a tough procedure. She actually died three times on the table, but we managed to resuscitate her"




"Twice."

If I ever take cigars this serious, I swear I will quit smoking them immediately!

I found the joke kind of clever, gave me a good laugh when I saw the GIANT APRIL FOOLS BANNER.

Like a dumb ass, I read the story on the initial link, then clicked on the link expecting to see some outrageously priced cuban cigars. When the April Fools banner popped up, I could not believe how gullible I was. Great job by Famous.

I for one have had nothing but good experiences with them, and have picked up some great cigars at great prices via their cigarmonster site.

Ha ha! Almost as good as Sidd Finch! That initial offer write-up sounded real...very real. Kudos to whoever at Famous Smoke Shop cooked up this one.

You have to be able to laugh at yourself when you get suckered by an April Fool's joke!

I'm not suggesting that a Doc would do that, I was just illustrating the set-someone-up-for-disappointment style of "humor."
