I smoked one of these at the Cigar Cigar Texas Fest and it was a very good smoke with great construction. If you see one give it a try!

I think he did promoyions for Rocky. when he met Gene they felt like they were long lost cousins. hence the name Cugine.

Rocky canned him.

I hope Arganese has better luck.

I can tell some horror stories but will hold my tongue.

You sure it was not a body double? Wow. Here is a story....

One Christmas I was the manager of a cigar shop, Christmas eve. he calls the shop and needs a last minute gift.. I tell him yeah Ill stay an extra half hour for you to pick it up. He comes an hour later.

Once outside he starts honking his horn feverishly, he wants me to bring the box of cigars outside to him. I ignore him, he just made me wait an hour. Come insider dammit.

He did not get the hint. I bring the box out to him, he goes "Can you gift wrap it for me". I tell him "You serious?" I take the money and walk back inside. He then parks the car as I am closing and he asks me to gift wrap it for him. I tell him Joe, even if I would do it for you, I dont have gift wrap. He says hold on and goes to rite aid for paper. At this point I am feverishly trying to close before he comes back. No such luck.

I wrap the gift for him, and he doesn't even thank me, or wish me a merry Christmas, let alone throw me a tip.

This is one of the nicer stories I can tell you about him.

And to think before he got lucky with the sopranos he owned a soup kitchen...

wow! that is SOME story - are you serious!

I cant believe its the same guy but it is

I mean he was taking pic with everyone, seemed real jovial - very interesting..maybe he is different when he is out in public versus not but even still that gives him no right to treat you the way he did!

I met dan marino in public - now that guys a REAL jerk
