Cigar-Smoking Contest Crowns Swedish Champ

3 April 2019 Wake-Up Crew

We had never heard of this contest before on the Wake-Up Crew! Entrants who make it to these Thailand cigar-smoking finals have to smoke their stogie for as long as possible, and maintain the ash on the end of it to boot. A Swedish man won the big prize recently for making his last over an hour, but that didn’t even come close to the world record–check out the full story here!

The River 95.3

Lonnie's Fun Fact for Monday April 19, 2021. According to History dot com, on this date in 1775, at about 5 a.m., 700 British troops, on a mission to capture Patriot leaders and seize a Patriot arsenal, march into Lexington to find 77 armed minutemen under Captain John Parker waiting for them on the town’s common green. British Major John Pitcairn ordered the outnumbered Patriots to disperse, and after a moment’s hesitation the Americans began to drift off the green. Suddenly, a shot was fired from an undetermined gun, and a cloud of musket smoke soon covered the green. When the brief Battle of Lexington ended, eight Americans lay dead or dying and 10 others were wounded. Only one British soldier was injured, but the American Revolution had begun. The battles of Lexington and, later, Concord were the first battles of the American Revolution, a conflict that would escalate from a colonial uprising into a world war that, seven years later, would give birth to the independent United States of America.
