Cigar Tetris: New High Score

Mark · 08-16-2009, 10:30 PM

I got to work today and we needed a box from a cabinet that is hidden by four hundred and fifty empty cigar boxes, so I got stackin'! Here's pictures from half way and when I'm finished. Sorry for the crappy camera phone pics, its all I had...

I'm very proud of my creation

It ended up being one box thick (along the wall) by about seven feet tall by about seven feet wide.

Of course tomorrow some old guy is gonna come in and want a box on the bottom. Its built pretty tight, so it could definitely spare maybe five or six boxes from the bottom before it collapses. Hopefully no one wants boxes soon

Reverse jenga! My coworker and I were joking about that today!

Old guys have a bad habit of making a MESS back there though.

Mark...what does the store usually do with those old boxes? I have my eye on that Tatauje box in the second pic...would fit perfect for a hole I have in my vino. Let me know brother.

Lucky y'all don't have earthquakes out there, we could never get high scores like that in Calibu

We sell them for $5 or 10 for $10 (Because we have so freakin many and we want to get rid of them). I can bring it home for you and ship it. Shoot me your address.

Yeah, I want the whole bottom row for myself too, Mark - I'm an old man, so it's OK.

Mark · 08-18-2009, 07:07 AM
