I will do what I have done the past couple of years with this contest.  Here is what you need to answer:

How many people will attend the herf?
How many cigars will be smoked during the herf?
What percentage of our main ashtray will be filled with ash by the end of the herf?
How many cigars will be gifted between the attendees during the herf?
How many combined runs will be scored between the Tacoma Rainiers and the Fresno Grizzlies at the baseball game we go to on July 12th?

That's it.  The last couple years I have sent the same gift pack I have given to the guys at the herf to the winner.  I might do that.  No guarantee.  Whatever the prize it will be worth taking the time to make a submission.

If you are attending the herf or are one of the past two year's winners, feel free to guess, but you are not eligible to win (you are already a winner).  Everyone else, you have one guess.  All guesses must be posted or modified no later than the end of the day July 9th.
I'm right 98% of the time.  Who cares about the other 3%?

Alright this one is closed.  I'm glad we got a few more guesses in there.  I will post the results probably next Tuesday or Wednesday.

Thanks again for the contest Neil.  You guys have a great time at the herf!

Thanks to all of you who took a guess.

We ended up with three Geeks at the herf.  I was expecting 4 or 5.  
We smoked 24 cigars. It wasn't part of the contest, but I think we also had 7 uses of pipes over the three days (all federally legal substances).
I forgot to bring ashtrays, but Bryan hooked us up and brought his Stinky ashtrays with him.  The main one we put all the ash in for the weekend was 43% full.
50 cigars were gifted during the herf.  Thanks again Mark and Bryan for some nice cigars.
Tacoma won the baseball game 7 to 2, for a total of 9 runs scored during the game (I know you already did the math yourself).

It was a very close completion.  Second place had an average variance of about 42%.  The winner with an average variance of about 41% is Mojo 66.  Canada.  I actually have to go to the post office and fill out paperwork to send your winnings off.  I will try to get it out no later than early next week.

Hope to see you all at Cigar Geeks Northwest Herf V July 10-12, 2015.  Olympia, WA.
