Been a while, folks, so let's kick it off again.
Hopefully y'all know the drill, but here's a reminder

Last years thread: https://texags.com/forums/34/topics/3209911/1

Rules from the last swap that seemed to work well enough:
Here are the dates:
  • Need you to post your willingness to participate by 11:59PM on Saturday, September 10, 2022
  • I will post assignments on Sunday, September 11th
  • Please try to organize and ship your assignments by Tuesday, September 13th so they'll arrive by the weekend.

Rules from previous post:
  • Sign up by 11:59PM Saturday, September 10.
  • Be willing to send 3-6 sticks, averaging $8-$12(?) per stick. Pretty sure I've always tried to send $40 to $50 in cigars, minimum.
  • Look for your assignments on or by 9-11-2022.
  • Contact your assignment for address and mail by 9-13-2022
  • Post pics from the scenic area of your choice; backyards and barbecues are acceptable.
  • Make people jealous of your score.

Additional options and notes:
  • Avoid poor quality sticks for the sake of sending another large cigar. There's nothing wrong with smaller cigars that are of good quality and I think most folks would rather receive an Arturo Fuente Short Story or a NUB over a Swisher Sweet that's larger.
  • If you feel so inclined, go big and get a $20 cigar with the understanding that the other two will be of 'lesser' quality, but still, please do not spend less than $8 on any one cigar as these tend to toe the poorer-quality line.
  • Again, no reason to break the bank, but most passes cost, at minimum, $40 in cigars and $5 in shipping. You'll be getting your investment back, and it's all in good fun.

I'm in. Only suggestion is maybe giving it a full week for signups if we don't get enough participants by your deadline.

If I knew anything about good cigars I would be in. I would feel sorry for the poor ******* that I drew

You don't need to be an expert. I'm a novice and you can figure out some decent sticks by reading around online or just go into a local shop that has good reviews and they can help you figure out 5 good ones.

Thanks, guys. We are going to see how many sign up today after they get a little sauce in them watching the games, then decide if we're going to extend sign up.

Alrighty guys, here are the passing assignments. I apologize for this dragging on so long, I wanted to try and get as many people as we had last year.

Please contact your partner by this weekend and ship out by Monday. If someone doesn't hear from their person by Friday afternoon please post it, and we can try to shuffle or move things around.

Taco will pass to 12th Man Ag
12th will pass to Trident
Trident will pass to BirdDog7000
BirdDog will pass to Boats and Hose
Boats and Hose will pass to Harry Bosch
Harry will pass to WestTxWood88
WestTx will pass to Kosmos

Man. I'm really sorry about that. I'll gladly exchange with you, Stro. Send me a PM with your address and we can trade.

No worries man. I'm just messing with you. All good. I'll get on the next one. I will say one of my new favorite smokes is an Oliva Serie 'V' Melanio Robusto. Pick one up if yall haven't tried it.

Have to agree this may now be my new favorite. Great smoke. Good draw and flavor. Just ordered some more on cigarbid.

Thanks, Taco! Columbus Day came early! That Bishop stick has me a little scared. Thanks so much!
TacosaurusRex
How long do you want to ignore this user?
You're welcome, sir! I haven't tried the Bishop, but the cigar shop guy said he highly recommended it and it was new. So I got one for myself too. We'll see.

Here's to colder weather and enjoying some cigars on the porch.

That crux bull and bear is really good. Hits hard at the end (at least for me).
