can you imagine the size of this bad boy "Because of pulmonary emphysema, he was forced to take medical leave for a time. When the doctors tried to prohibit him from smoking, Che negotiated permission to smoke a single cigar a day, and promptly arranged to have an extraordinarily long size rolled for him that he could smoke all day, without violating the agreement."

adolf hitler was a interesting person also.

Yes he was. He was also very anti-smoking though so doesn't really fit in well to this conversation.

This being a forum for discussion of Cuban cigars, why not discuss what cigars interesting people smoked?

Whether a person is viewed historically as good, bad or evil does not necessarily make them any more or less interesting.
