Mike, you certainly do. Ever smoke an Opus first thing in the morning on an empty stomach? In 1999 at the CF Celebration, Carlito hands me a fresh Hummer first thing in the morning, I don't know how to this day I smoked it without puking my guts up. He just kept looking at me and laughing... the prick. lol

My worst experiances ever with nicotine have all come from the Irish Flake. I thought it would be cool to try as probabley the first premium blend I have ever tried and at the time I did not know that I had a very low tolerance to nicotine and I was a complete noob only used to cheap drugstore aromatics. Ugh, never again!

I'll never forget the first time I ever smoked C&Ds Montford Point Marine. I forgot my name and where I was. Definitely feeling no pain.

Harris, now that is really funny! I have smoked an Opus for breakfast and it was also Carlito's fault! That's what I got for stopping by the Fuente booth in the morning at the RTDA show in 2000. Don't recall what size it was but it was one of those "special" Opus he kept on him and I couldn't resist firing it up. I think the only reason I didn't puke was because I must have had at least 10 cigars the day before and I was pretty much running on nicotine, caffeine and alcohol, LOL
Those were the days.

Mike, those were some fun times. I remember the 99 rtda, Carlito kept handing me the Opus Serie X 2 torpedo's, luckily they had some age so they were not killers. The worst though was in 2000 when I spent a few days with him and we were at the factory and he made me smoke a fresh Opus Super Beli right off the rolling table. It was so freaking strong and like you luckily I had enough nic in me to not puke but man it was raw. He loves messing you up, that is for sure.
