Just For Him holds a pipe smoking contest every year. The rules are simple. Everyone gets 1/8 ounce of Cube Cut Burley, two matches and a minute to light their pipe. After the minute the matches are picked up and no relights are allowed. The last person smoking is the winner. After the contest is over the contestants take turns choosing prizes from the prize table until they are gone. No contestant has ever left without a prize.
