This is my 1000th post, so I guess it's time for a little contest.

This is a two part contest with 2 prizes. Post a pic of you favorite ashtray and/or drinking vessel. It's going to be on the honor system that it actually belongs to you. Post as many as you want, and edits are fine.

I might pull in some guest judges or just judge myself, haven't decided yet. Winner of the drinking vessel will get a box of beer, and winner of the ashtray will get a nice 5er.

Thanks for making my time here so enjoyable, and hopefully you all enjoy the contest.

Addition:

Forgot to put when the contest is over. How about 8/31/07 @ 10pm Mountain Time.
 
Here's my entry for my favorite ashtray... My brother made this for me about a year ago. He made it have a custom mini tray in the center for ash stands... I thought it was an awesome idea. It is hand thrown on his pottery wheel and he took broken glass and melted it down in the kiln...

My fave's (please disregard the ashtrays in the background, I didn't mean to get them in the shot)

My drinking vessel- Large crystal snifter with my name engraved on it....birthday present from the wife since my favorite drinks with cigars are usually bourbon, brandy or cognac.

My ashtray- the ugly thing in the foreground. Believe it or not, I love this thing more than my "nice" Cohiba ashtray. It cradles the cigar very well and is so freakin' heavy that a hurricane couldn't move it. I got it for free at the local B&M for purchasing so many cigars.
 
I got this Diamond Crown ashtray from ebay for about $22 delivered. Not bad for a $180 list 6lb hunk of crystal.

For glasses I use a Ravenscroft for Scotch, Riedel for Bourbon. Beer gets a JD stein given to me by my Aunt & Uncle about 15 years ago. Camping is an insulated stainless steel mug from Russia and everything else gets our regular glasses.

Jonas volunteered to judge the drinking vessel part of this. I figured who better than that lush?

Still waiting to hear back from my hopeful ashtray judge.

Keep 'em coming!
 
Well, not that I expect to win, but I don't expect you to ship a case of beer to Canada should someone choose mine, based on content!!!!!! Here's my favourite "drinking vessel" full of one of my favourite beverages!!!

Nobody said nuttin' about it having to contain alcohol!!!!

BTW, said "drinking vessel" was "borrowed" from a certain resort in Santa Lucia, Cuba, and I promise I'll return it next time there.
















LMAO, yeah, right.
 
Hmmm... guess when I get home in the morning I'll have to take a photo of the floorboard of my truck, since that's my fav ashtray! :laugh: Or would it be beneath the helm station on my boat? either way I cannot go wrong!

As far as drinking... well... whatever hold the liquid works for me :whistling:

Perhaps I need to clarify. Not a case, a package with a few really nice beers is the prize.

With who I asked to judge the ashtray part of this contest, your floorboard might not be a bad bet.
 
I like to keep it simple. here's my one and only ashtray lol
