I'd say #4...I've gotten some "tunneling" when I'm trying to hurry one up, and smoke it to fast. The inner part of the "cherry" is hotter than the outer. So, it will tunnel in, if given the chance.

Usually tunneling is from high outdoor humidity...how fresh was the cigar? This could also do it too you! Sometimes depending on where you got it from and where you store it the fluctuations can effect the burn

Thanks guys! Thinking back over all the circumstances, I think I was probably smoking too fast.

This, plus what Leemcglynn said. I hate when that happens.

I am going to say it can be a wrapper that is too moist, drier filler burns quicker, uneven humidity within the cigar does happen if the cigars are not rested long enough. OR a construction issue. If the filler is too loose it will burn quicker than the binder and wrapper. I would guess construction issues are the most likely culprit.
