We kicked off the 2nd Annual Hudgar on Thursday, August 14. For those of you that don’t follow our wacky blog, Hudgar is our two-man bi-annual cigarfest. We started this 3 years ago when I moved from SoCal to Ohio as an excuse to get nostaglic about the “good old days” of doing nothing more than smoking cigars in the garage.
