Habana Mike Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Yep. Best one was the one where you hit the platform with a sledgehammer, sending a metal block up a slide towards a bell. Ring the bell, get a cigar. 1cm away would be close, but no cigar..... So, about as close as one could get to winning without actually winning. I know this from watching cartoons in my youth. Appeared in many episodes of different shows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 What does "Close, but no cigar mean"? The same thing as, "Close is a lingerie shop without a front window". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least according to the Starr report Bill was an early adopter of the dipped/wet wrapper cigar. Wonder what kind of enhanced flavor he was going for...

Edicion Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 It is for when someone shows you a nice box of cigars, you look at them closely, examine the box, the bands, the codes, ask on the FOH forum, and everything tells you they are fake Cuban cigars. Hence the meaning, close but no cigar.😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
