... and what do you want to bet that it's plugged ... LOL!

Unique novelty. I guess that’s fun/entertaining for a roller. It didn’t say if they smoked it... or even if it would smoke.

The most interesting part of the article to me was the last few paragraphs!

“... His recognition by Guinness was announced on the same day that officials shut down an illegal cigar factory -- one of 100 dismantled since the beginning of the year for trying to pass off mediocre smokes as authentic Cuban brand-name cigars.

Cuba has a thriving black market in cigars. Some illegal factories manufacture mediocre cigars, then attach the labels of authentic, more expensive makers and distribute them in tourist areas.

A box of 25 Esplendidos that costs $25 on the street sells for $300 in the official state-run stores.”
