    Holy crap just had my first centurion!!! Smoked it for an hour and a half and still had about an inch left. I set it down because I got a call to sign some paperwork and had to step inside. Was gone for a minute tops and came back to see a homeless guy walking away with the last inch of my Gurkha.... share some of your smoking mishaps.

    LOL.... that's funny. But you should write the entire cigar off on your taxes as a charitable donation.

    it was dark and i was on me 3rd cigar and somewhere in the teens on pints of beer anyway cigar was in the ashtray, and the wind had changed direction so i turned my chair around. picked up my cigar want went to take a puff,, i did it without looking as i had been all night and the look on my face when the cigar went in the wrong way around was apparently priceless. yum a mouth full of hot ash. because id changed my seat around the cigar was facing the wrong way when i picked it up. wasn't a happy bunny. not as funny as your story though

    A bum stole your cigar? Ha, that's pretty funny. I agree, you should write that off.

    I can't think of any 'misfortunes', but I once was outside smoking, watching a bad thunderstorm roll in. I had a good inch of ash going(I can't remember the cigar). Pellets of rain started falling here and there, and one came down and had a direct hit on my ash. It was pretty odd.

    I got home last night (pretty late) and came out to my garage to smoke a Rocky Patel Summer 08. I smoked about an inch of it before I fell asleep on my futon here, and when I woke up and drug myself to bed, I didn't even think of it. This morning when I got up, the remainder had been ruined by the humidity. Not really funny or anything, but I thought it was rather tragic.

    For some reason, it seemed like this was going to end with your futon being burned up by the cigar. Thankfully, that didn't happen. Sucks you lost your cigar though.

    hahaha, wow, that's good. I don't have any misfortunes other than when my wife makes me do something and I have to come back to a cigar hours later. Doesn't happen much but it does. Yeah I could just wait till I'm done but then I hear her bugging me the whole time... grrrr.

    Sooo im waiting for the bus to go to the dentist and so I decide to smoke a cigar..(and no i dont have anything against my dentist , I brought some mouth wash!).
    I was relatively new to cigars and was puffing/chomping away at the thing for some time.
    Finished up the cigar just as the bus was pulling in , got on the bus
    Then...BAM!!
    It hits me , too much nicotine for such a rookie smoker..im on the bus and im sweating and griping my seat tiring with all my might to not puke on the lap of the people sitting next to me...
    Im just sitting there green as grass eyes fixed in the distance concentrating...dont throw up...dont throw up....
    Every bump and curve is one step towards putting my over the edge.......I get to my stop
    I bolt out the door of the bus and run into the public washroom of the mall that my dentist is in....and i wait ......clinging to the sink and splashing water on my face every now and then.....i get over it..no sicky sicky...I march up to my dentist just in time for a filling.......
    I am still here

    Wow that was probably the most intense cigar story I've ever heard. Anyways, one time as I was sitting down on my balcony to enjoy a La Aroma de Cuba toro, I somehow dropped it on the ground before lighting, cracking the wrapper and pretty much ruining the experiance before it even started, sad day.

    I dropped a La Flor Dominica Ligero once, and it the edge of my laundry basket, chipping a tiny bit around the foot. I was still able to smoke it without many problems, thankfully.
