I'm going to say inhaling the first time I smoked a cigar. I'm sure it also didn't help I used a BIC lighter. In fact, I probably did a whole bunch of noob things...
Not knowing that puffing cigars needs to be done slowly. I got a huge nicotine rush and pretty much thought I was going to die. When I woke up I was covered in sweat.

I did the same thing too. I didn't pass out, but I felt like I was going to die.
1st humi was way too small, second turned out to be too small too.
That has got to be the most common one. I guess its hard to imagine going from "Let me try them out" to "I need to have them all." My cabinet humidor arrives in 10 days. I have 2 200ct humis, 3 50ct, a 25ct, a tupperdor, and a 150qt coolidor.
I fell for the hype that is Gurkha, ordered the 20 ct humi sampler and a couple of other Gurkha samplers as well, thought I was getting a deal kinda freaked out and thought I was doing something wrong because several cracked and a couple actually blew up IN the Humidor.
Thinking the box Macanudo's come in would keep them good in my drawer. Then waiting a couple months before smoking one. Then wondering if maybe their quality went downhill. And continuing to smoke them every month or so hoping I'd find a good one. Oh, and smoking one after I smoked a bunch of something else and...nearly smoking it backwards about halfway through...nearly, because I didn't actually draw...

Didn't you just start smoking cigars two months ago, Mike? LoL
^^^ lol. exactly. but obviously the cabinet humidor is going to replace a lot of the other storage containers I have. I'll probably get rid of the tupperdor and all the small humis.

Yeah, I hate this phrase but,.........you're like a noob on steroids. At this rate you need to start looking around the house for a room to convert to a walk-in.
No no. I can't convince my wife of THAT. We just had a baby. She doesn't love me THAT much. Ummm..sooo.....thats why I thought about gutting a one bedroom apartment and making a lounge with a wall to wall humidor - and a bar.
My biggest regret is buying too much of what I don't like anymore! Most have gone to the troops and I have a good sized container filled with give to guys that dont know cigars stash. I've learned be patient don't jump on a wagon give it a few tries before you buy a box or two!
