I met JD at an event in Pittsburgh, there was an extremely long line of people who wanted to meet him. He took the time to talk to everyone in line and didn't rush through anyone. They weren't short conversions either we BSed with him for about 15 minutes. Class act in my book.
Only one I've met is Arturo Fuente Jr. of Tampa Sweethearts, not sure if that really counts or not but he was very friendly. As others have noted it seems that JD and Pete Johnson would be really cool based on what I've read and observed.
I've only met JD, but I'm pretty sure that's all it would take. I don't know if you'll find a more genuine and passionate guy than him. He made everyone feel like an old friend. I hope I have many more opportunities to smoke with that dude!!!
JD is definatly one person I go out of my way to see when I ca, such a great guy. Marvin and Steve are good people as well. Pete and Dion are also 2 guys I like to talk with. Litto is very friendly as well. It is a hard call.
I'm going to go with JD. I have yet to meet any of them in person, but everything I have seen in interviews and forum posts, seems like a really cool dude.
