    Default VA PASS POLL - POOL 1: Landmark Photos

    Hi Folks,

    For y'all that know about the VA pass that ended successfully - I've been (apologetically) deferring this poll until I got the pictures back, work, excuses, etc. An absolutely travesty of justice on my part.

    That being said, part of the original rules from the pass thread are:

    12) Any extra cigars left over will be split between polls for the best landmark photo and the best "other" photo.

    Post #266 from the thread has the details on the cigar pools for 1. Landmark Photos and 2. Other Photos. This one would be the landmark photos. The winner of this pool gets the sticks from the first pool of sticks:

    10. SLR Serie A (ISOM) - (P:BigMacFU)
    The photos are numbered 1-11, with the number preceding the pic. The system only allows up to 10 numbered poll items, so for #11, just write it in bold and we'll catch it from here.

    Had to go with #1 due to WOXOF's creative use of graffiti and my love for The King.

    #2 and #8 also get tons of style points, imho.

    Mauied, Thanks for getting these up in this format- super work!

    I voted for #9 because......

    It's mine
    I'm not big on doing reviews, tobacco doesn't taste like "cocoa" or "nutty" or "mocha" to me, it tastes like freakin' TOBACCO. I know what I like and I really don't care what other people think of other cigars. I've never read a review and said to myself "Wow, that sounds like a cigar I'd like to try!"

    ok, I didn't read the rules all the way (not the 1st time and probably not the last), and didn't include the cigars in the pictures. However, in an effort to help ya'll forget me being a dumbass, check out the pictures of the plaque in the 4th and 6th frames in this post. It commemorates an event that was broadcast internationally. First one to guess the event wins a stocking stuffer.

    I can finally see! #ten looks cool. Hope Cdan didn't have to talk with the fish on account of the picture.
