So I have this big ol Johnny O, thanks to Hendy, sitting in my humidor I want to smoke.
The question is to cut off the shaggy foot before lighting the cigar or not?
What say you brothers and sisters?

I have always just lit the foot as is on this type of rolled cigar.

Jason, Jason, Jason, :-):-):-) We answered this question sitting around the Buddha Bar at Doug's house??? Well you were pretty out of it with the jet lag from Texas...
SOooooooo---Burn it up gives you an appreciation for the flavors imparted by the wrapper when you transition into the full cigar.:-)

We did? Alcohol and jet lag are my co-counsels on this one. I don't remember that at all.

"Do a barrel roll!!" Please tell me that is a reference to Star Fox 64!
:-):-)
But my real vote is to light that baby up!

Do a barrell roll, jump up and down six times, do the hokey pokey and turn yourself about, then light it up.

I would just light it, but make sure to toast it and get it burning evenly before you start smoking it

I usually just light it as is. I have had a couple that were "excessively" shaggy. Some pieces sticking out an inch or more. I have clipped just a enough off to have the shaggy part somewhat together so nothing is in flames.

I cut it then light the foot. The only cigar I've had with a shaggy foot is the El Mejor Emerald. I like that stick very much but the shaggy foot is a pain, so I snip it.
