Thanks CBOB. Not only was that informative AND enjoyable but now I have to break the news to my wife that some of her HUNKS on TV are also BOTL. Should be a good point of interest the next time she runs me and my cigar out the front door.

That was in Cigar Aficianado a few years ago, Demi Moore...not! John Grisham only 4 cigars a week, how did he invade this list? All in All a pretty good listing, but the guys who write, direct, produce, and act on 24 smoke about 25 cigars a day between them! Now those are cigar smokers!

Great post. I've been looking for a list like this for years. Sort of like looking through a celebrity atheists list.

4 GEORGE BURNS
From an impromptu singing gig in a candy store at the age of seven, to his enduring partnership with Gracie Allen, to solo stand-up comedy acts into his late 90s, Burns kept American audiences in stitches through most of the twentieth century. Invariably, he smoked his trustworthy El Producto cigars during his act, not because he couldn't afford a more expensive cigar, but because they stayed lit on stage longer than the more tightly packed Havana smokes. "If you have to stop your act to keep lighting your cigar, the audience goes out," he once cracked. The legendary star of vaudeville, radio, TV and film resurrected his movie career in the 1970s with starring roles in The Sunshine Boys and Oh, God! Burns, who lived to 100, credited his 10- to 15-cigar-a-day habit over a 70-year span with not only keeping him spry on stage but also with helping him outlive his physician. "If I had taken my doctor's advice and quit smoking when he advised me to," Burns quipped at age 98, "I wouldn't have lived to go to his funeral."

Favorite cigar: El Producto

I guess that just proves "you need to use the right tool for the right job"...8-[

Don't forget Richard Overton, who has smoked 10-12 cigars a day for the last 90 years.

Not a typo.

He turned 112 back in May, and is still going strong. Walks without assistance, drives around in his pickup truck, does his own grocery shopping with it, has no chronic diseases, takes no prescription medication, and drinks whiskey, eats ice cream and still smokes 10-12 cigars daily.

There's a video about him on YouTube that's great. His favorite lighter? The blue flame of his kitchen gas range. A Xikar it ain't.

What a guy! I hope he lives to at least 120!
