Anyone interested in a box pass? I don't see one on the front page at the moment. I'm not thinking anything huge, maybe just a handful of participants. I'm thinking of starting it out with a range of cigars from about $5-$15. If you're interested, please chime in.

Different organizers tweak their own box passes to some degree, but these instructions give a pretty good general idea:

Thank you!

I'll wait my two months to not be a forum new guy anymore and hop in after that.

Thanks again.

Shell, make sure you stick around. Despite the ridiculous level of BS here, were largely a fantastic group of men (and a few women). Get involved and enjoy!

USPS tracking shows it out for delivery today.

I should have posted: box got here in fine shape. I ran my trades by schreiber, boxed it up, and sent it along.

Should be at stop #2 today.

Something the rest of us have been thinking for a while.

The pass has been deposited into the big blue hole called USPS and is on the way to the next victim.

Well, somebody has to be retired so others can go to work. I took one for the team. You're welcome.
