LIVE Labels Turned Upside Down

A few people have told me that some of the labels are upside down. After inspection of my boxes I found some that had the label upside down. If it is lit from the wrong end it may unravel.

You have to look real close at the wrapper and how the turns go. The last turn at the head should be on top of the one below. If it's underneath it's the foot. The capped head and foot make it tough to tell.

Thank you guys for letting me know about the problem. I should have had them precut but once again I wanted to be different. See how that worked out.

Yea I looked back at my pics after the first person mentioned this and laughed at myself for not realizing why the damn thing kept trying to unravel.

Poor Daniel, the headaches keep coming eh?

I smoked the red last night and was not thinking about it and I lit the wrong end. Band was upside down.

I spoke with George this morning about it and we are going to try to correct it. The lines are sometimes hard to see which overlaps which.

I studied this Green label and still lit the wrong end. Darn thing is unraveling on me. Thats two for two, the first being a Blue lable. I got to figure this out before I smoke the next one.

Looks like fuzzy math to me. Just cut and light both ends and you'll be fine.

Thanks for the pics! I smoked one Blue label before this was figured out and sure enough... it unraveled. I'll have to go thru the rest.

Had my first Blue last night. Thanks for the heads up. The label was upside down but with the warning I caught it and managed to light the correct end. Great smoke..
