The cigar smoker stereotype

[Roham]

Until I started posting here and the other board I frequent, I always thought the majority of cigars smokers were older men that had money.

They probably are. They just have better things to do then hang out here Or they know as much as they need to know about cigars so coming here for information isn't their idea of fun

Thanks for the replies guys, some interesting points there. I'm glad I'm not alone in feeling a bit 'weird' when smoking a larger guage cigar in public. My friends are all used to seeing me smoking cigars now, I think they're all kinda intrigued by it. I agree with you, Puff, that its just a hobby that you sink your cash into, It's just a shame many people don't understand the 'collectors' side of cigars as a hobby, and the appreciation of how the cigars are made and different flavour profiles etc.
