1000 post contest

Posts: 4,133 ✭
It hasn't escaped me, and a few others, that my post count is approaching 1,000. And, in keeping with the spirit of the loosely defined traditions of this good forum, I shall offer a contest. It also helps that I recently won the lotto contest and expect to be flush with cigars in the near future. Hehe
With that being said, I have spent numerous hours working on a worthy contest. And I can't really think of anything intellectually stimulating, so I came up with this.
2 parts, 1 or 2 winners.
How many of these great United States have I visited(drove through at least)?
How many of these great states have I physically slept on the ground (camping).
This contest is open to all BOTLs with at least 200 posts, a chance for some of you newbies to find gravitas. Hehe. The contest ends at 1000!
Thanks to all those who came before me and welcomed me. You know who you are.

By the nature of this question, I would guess that it is a remarkable feat. So I would say you have visited 47 states, and slept on the ground in 43 of them. Congratulations on your upcoming membership to the Millennium Club.0

So I got Rick's winnings today I'm like WTF!!! Seriously man your generosity will NOT go unpunished
my part of the winnings include
LADC Mi Amor
a Padilla Black Bear
an Espernay Illusion
a My Father Le Bijou (seriously been wanting one for quite a while as the Garcia's have yet to make a cigar I don't like)
And last but certainly not least an Ashton VSG
Unlike some people's responses of "I'll get you back for this" I most certainly will be sending a small Nuclear Ordinance towards you, might not be tomorrow, might not be this month, but one day when you least expect it, Boom goes the dynamite.0 -
I got my winnings from Rick yesterday too! This BOTL sent out a couple of awesome prizes!
I got a LADC Mi Amor, Padilla '68, an Illusion Epernay, a My Father Le Bijou 1922, and an Ashton VSG! I have been wanting to try 4 of these, and the Padilla '68 is one of my all time favorites!
Thanks again Rick!
