My new backyard (as of 10 days from now)
My Grandfather
It wouldn't matter what we smoked, as long as I got to talk with him for a good two hours as an adult (he passed when I was 13, and is the man I modeled myself after).

Guest: my grandfather
Destination: his driveway
Cigar: whatever he would have smoked

This thread made me think about how when we smoke it should always be about the moment...my pa is not with us any more and I would have loved to smoke with him, as I came to cigars after his passing...point had: take some time to smoke with the ones you love before its too late...

Oh, the possibilities that fantasy can conjure... Certainly not the last, nor the first, image that comes to mind:

The early 60's, Las Vegas, NV
The Rat Pack (Joey Bishop, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, and 'ole Blue Eyes)
Arturo Fuente Hemingway Masterpiece Maduro (Followed immediately with a LP No. 9)

Sadly my grandfather passed more than a year ago but wasn't able to smoke for the last 10years of his life. I really didn't take up the hobby seriously till about 3 years ago. At deer camp when I was younger we'd always meet up at this special tree for a cigarette (Which I quit 14 years ago) but I always remember that and looked forward to meeting him there. He loved his pipes the most but smoked cigarettes alot. I never really remember him smoking his cigars but knew he did because i would swipe one when I was a kid. It wasn't until it was to late that he told me he could smoke one with me. I'd give anything to share that experience with him.

The cigar: whatever-the-heck that first cigar was that I tried the very first time I visited a cigar parlor. I was so new to this that I never noticed the brand, but my memory is that it was a very distinctive maduro. As long as we're wildly fantasizing...I want to know what that cigar was!

Abraham Lincoln and U.S. Grant
The white house in the days following the end of the war and the days leading up to Lincoln's death.
I'm sure Grant would have plenty of cigars to go around so whatever he decided to bring with him that day for everyone.

"Grant was said to smoke 20 cigars a day. His habit increased during the Civil War, after the Battle at Fort Donelson in Tennessee in mid-February 1862. As he later told General Horace Porter, "I had been a light smoker previous to the attack on Donelson .... In the accounts published in the papers, I was represented as smoking a cigar in the midst of the conflict; and many persons, thinking, no doubt, that tobacco was my chief solace, sent me boxes of the choicest brands .... As many as ten thousand were soon received. I gave away all I could get rid of, but having such a quantity on hand I naturally smoked more than I would have done under ordinary circumstances, and I have continued the habit ever since."

Now that's a president the BOTLs could stand behind.

Who: Sir Hubert Wilkins, a little known Aussie explorer, he was a photographer in the war, a farmer, an artist, an inventor and went on and lead expeditions to antarctica.
Where: either on his ranch in south Australia, or sitting on the deck of his custom built submarine as it steamed towards antarctica
what: something big and long, as I'm sure his stories would be big and long, so a big Cohiba, or anything good in the cuban churchill category.
