Famous Cigar Smokers, Part II

Here’s the second part of the 10 most famous cigar smokers…

Arnold Schwarzenegger: Arnold began smoking back in 1977, after his future-wife, Maria Shriver’s dad, gave him a cigar after dinner. She probably can’t complain about his smoking, if that’s the case.

Jack Nicholson: The famous actor was initially a cigarette smoker who smoked a lot particularly during golf, so he decided to quit cigarettes and switch to cigars (from the 5th hole onwards). His first cigar encounter was in 1973 when he shot The Last Detail, when he played a cigar loving officer. His favorite cigar is Montecristo.

Bill Cosby: A famous tale about Bill Cosby and his cigars was when he saw a show by Figure Skating Tonya Harding during the 1994 Winter Olympics. He was so interested in the performance that he picked up his cigar from the ashtray and put it in his mouth… ash end first. Anyway, his most loved cigar? Ashton Maduro No.60

George Burns: The famous comedian, who lived to be a 100 even though he smoked almost 15 cigars a day, was never seen without his trademark cigar, on stage and off stage. He used to enjoy a smoke El Producto, because they would never burn out during a show, unlike other cigars, that are tightly packed. His famous saying on his cigars was: “If you have to stop your act to keep lighting your cigar, the audience goes out”.

Mark Twain: Mark Twain Once declared that if smoking is not permitted in heaven, he won’t go. The legendary author of Tom Sawyer and the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn smoked a lot. How much is a lot? Legend says at least 20 cigars a day, perhaps even 40. His Favorite cigar was… anything other than Havana.
