I too share about my first Cigar.
As a Youngster my parents discovered I was also looking into tobacco a bit to much for thier happiness.
Dad came home sporting this circus looking thing had to be a 90 ringsize It even was green and just HUGE.
I think it was the circus joke cigar sold at smokeshops back then. We, my brother and I each earned one of these monsters. As we sat in the living room at the little table the old man fired up our smokes, and one puff at a time we had to finish every last bit.
But It wasn't bad enough that we had these donkey rockets - we had to swallow each puff of this nasty disqusting thing. I thought I was dying right then and there. Not only where we greener than the cigars, we where quite dizzy and sick.
But Dad wanted to 'learn us good' so if we puked we had to start over, as he whipped out 2 more of these things. It was about an hour later we where alsmost finished when we had to "finish the butts" as in eat um.
It was quite the experiance,
but come to think about it some more those darned circus smokes burned even all the way down. Here I am later in life still enjoying smokes, yeah I agree thanks Dad for the great time.
Of course try that now for kids and some group would put you in Jail.....
