Who's up for a contest???

One of our own, stinger88, is headed overseas with his unit next month. There's an unused 70 qt Coleman marine ice chest sitting in my garage. See where this is going???

At the moment the rules and the prize list is a work in progress. But, if history is any indicator there will be a handful, or more, of highly sought after prizes for the top contributors.

Once the cooler is filled it will be shipped to his unit's APO.

Prize list so far:

Some booze
Some koobans
A Taste of Louisiana


I'm thinking the best way to determine the standings will be based on total weight of the leaf & cello rather than number of cigars. Seems like a few years back someone crammed about 100 cigarillos in a SFR. I'm thinking a couple dozen or so robustos is that require a MFR would be worth more points than a SFR.


UPDATE (02/14/2015 @ 8:34 AM Central)
Due to almost everyone volunteering to to help fill the cooler and having no desire to compete for prizes, the prize poll is rescinded.

Ship donations to me. I'll load everything in the cooler and ship it to Dave's APO. If you need my addy, shoot me a pm.

If you send smokes, try to include a Boveda or two. I've got some, but not enough.

Cutters/lighters....cheap cutters would be good. Lighters, I am not sure about. I think there should be a decent supply at the on station PX. I will take one of my refillable good ones and see if I can pickup some gas over there.

What's the time limit on this? If I can send it out next Friday I'm in to toss some sticks to a brother in uniform. Don't really care to contest though.

No worries Dave. You're family here. By the time you leave out we should have a very nice stash for your unit.

Hmmmmm..... Think I'm in, if I win you can bomb the crap out of Stinger88 once he gets back from the dirtbox. It's the only way to be sure.

I'm in too - no contest needed- just support for those serving. I'll do smokes and set up the cooler with 2 lbs. of heartfelt beads (enough for this one and another - think he's gonna need it!) Beer

I've got three Walmarts within 5 miles of my house. There's a Sam's Club about 5 miles away.

I say bring it on.

Let's go folks. Here is one of our own leading a company of our young airman. Surely we can provide them with enough smokes to keep them happy. We CAN and HAVE done better!!!
