Cigarettes, pipe tobacco and cigars

by "lubow" <lubow@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Feb 12, 2008 at 01:00 AM

This is not related to anything in the MIS charter, but what the heck...

Remember the days when TV shows had tobacco sponsors?  At a recent family 
gathering, my cousins and I were discussing the bad old nicotine days (we 
all lost parents through smoking related illnesses) and we came up with
this 
trivia quiz.

(1) Who was the tobacco auctioneer who ended the commercial with the
words, 
"Sold American!?"

(2) Which cigarette featured the Micronite filter?

(3) Which American Tobacco Co. (now called Fortune Brands FO) brand gave 
away 500 boxes of cigarettes to various Veterans Hospitals following the 
John Cameron Swayze news broadcast on NBC? The news broadcast was named 
after the cigarette.

(4) Which cigarette had "Just the right touch of menthol?"

(5) Which RJ Reynolds brand equated "Springtime" with smoking its 
cigarettes?

(6) Which cigarette featured the "Men of America" in its commercials? 
(Mad 
Magazine did an hilarious satire of these commercials!)

(7) What does "LSMFT" mean?

(8) On a US Navy ****p, at least according to the cigarette commercial on
the 
show, "Navy Log," what announcement is made to permit smoking on board?

(9) Which American Tobacco brand was named after a hit TV show which it 
sponsored?

(10) Which cigarette brand showered its smoker with great gifts via its
use 
of coupons stuck to each pack of cigarettes plus four additional coupons
in 
each carton?

(11) For L&M cigarettes, what did the L and M mean?

(12) What or whom did Johnny "call for?"

(13) On the TV show Chance of a Lifetime, what brand of cigarettes was 
dancing?

(14) What cigarette would you light up if it is "Light up time?"

(15) What cigarette was "Outstanding! ... and they are mild?"

(16) What was the name of the penguin who urged viewers to "Smoke Kools?"

(17) Which "civilized" cigarette prided itself in not having (1) a
"singing 
commercial;"  (2) a "noise blaring whistle," and (3) "shouting from the 
house tops?"

(18)  What's the chant my cigarette girl chants?

(19)  This is about pipe tobacco: Which brand "Smokes grand, packs right, 
tastes clean, can't bite.  Stays fresh! (bomp bomp!) So fresh in a
pouch!?"

(20) This is about a cigar brand:  I've met the girls, I've seen them.
I've 
gambled and I've sinned but who is my one friend who's been with me
through 
thick and thin?
