Up early today to watch the broadcast of UFC 321: Tom Aspinall vs. Ciryl Gane, taking place at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, in United Arab Emirates. Having Seattle Pipe Club Hogshead in an Unbranded, Rusticated, Octagonal Paneled Magnum. This 10" behemoth sports a 1.125" wide chamber; in terms of depth, my entire ring finger can fit up to the new meteorite-filled wedding band (I can’t believe a week has passed since Susan and I tied the knot—life is speeding by!) Being eight-sided, with a huge chamber, makes it a perfect UFC pipe for me—because Hogshead is dense and burns pretty slowly, this pipe usually provides seven or eight hours of smoking time with a single chamber load of tobacco, which covers the prelims, main card and post show coverage. Sometimes it submits me and has me tapping out from a nic hit before smoking all of its contents.
