I smoked two DE natural eggs when I was 19....whew my secret is out.
I bet that's a load off your chest...

Don't you feel better?
What's the gauge on that thing? 100?
Only in the middle. I might have to rephrase. I tried to smoke two. Each one got so tarry that I could only smoke the first half basically. They just did not really taste good either.
Braver man than i!

I was tempted to try one as they are like super weird. Now that you describe them as tarry, I won't waste my time and money. Lol.

Thanks?

I think when I got them they were going for like $3-$4 a single on Cbid. I got one in the fancy Natural sampler box with a few of each from the Natural line that was out in 2001/2002 and that had an egg in there. Then I bought one on cbid too. I had two before ever trying one. Give one a shot maybe they're better now. I was 19 then so it's been 12 years since I had one. Funny they're still around actually....

A friend of mine had given me a glass top box of 10 CoRo's about 2 years before I really got into cigars. I kept them on my bookcase for a few months before deciding to pull one out and smoke it. I sat on my front porch smoking that stale (though I didn't know it was stale at the time), fake monstrosity with my head cocked back thinking I was the king of the world at the time. In my friend's defense he probably didn't know they were fakes when he gave them to me.

I was such a noob.

Mine was more HERF related rather than the cigar itself. At my first HERF, both cityblock25 and jdog brought scotch and I proceeded to get blitzed. I pretty much blanked the whole night and Bob gave me the who the F is this guy look all night. I had the worst hangover in my life. My wife said I came into the house broke a glass while trying to get water. Put chicken nuggets into the oven then went to the couch and passed out. She had to turn everything off and clean up my mess. I think Jdog expects me to get crazy every time we meet up but I've been on my best behavior ever since :)

The lesson is Jdog is a dick.

Wow this is hilarious and sounds like something I would do, especially coming home drunk and putting nuggets in the oven only I would proceed to eat them on the kitchen island drunk as S*** with my eyes half closed.

I remembered another one. I was in turkey and all I really did there was drink beer and smoke cigars when not at work. One night I was smoking too many cigars and stuck a LFD DL in my pocket, big mistake. I was a bit intoxicated and got the DL out which gave me crazy spins and I couldn't get up for at least 20 minutes.

Ok. So back in my college days, I was a major lightweight with both cigars and alcohol. I was hanging with a new crowd of guys I met through a buddy. We had ourselves "fancy cigar night," which consisted of buying something higher than $3 (yeah, cigar noob status), and had some beers. So, I ended up smoking the original un-banded 6x60 Padilla Golden Bear.... and it kicked my ass. Combined with the 13 beers I had (an enormous amount for me back then), I was feeling so accomplished that I proceeded to make fun of the only guy not drinking at his own party because he was on antibiotics, telling him that real men drink real beer, not the non-alcoholic beer he was drinking (yeah I was a dick back then). I then passed out on the floor of this same guy's apartment, under the beer pong table, and stayed there until the next morning.

Two things:
1) I found out that the entire time I was making fun of this guy, after my 4th beer, he was feeding me non-alcoholic beer and enduring my rampant drunken lightweight nonsense. I was so tipsy on those four beers and the Golden Bear that I had no idea.
2) The guy I was making fun of.... Yeah he woke me up, fed me breakfast, and took me to local B&M that afternoon... then schooled me. We are currently best buds.

haha.... ridiculous times back then.
