I just let it burn out in the ashtray. Unless I'm in the car. Then I toss it. It doesn't have a filter so no biggie. Just don't throw it in leaves.

Usually I let it burn out on it's own. However, when I'm out hiking or fishing or something I do put it out in some dirt, put it in a bag, and pop it in a pocket for disposal once I get home.

I had to teach a guy who had been smoking for 20 years (and still smokes RP and Gurkhas, but that's another story) and stopping out his cigar like it was a disease. I mean, sheesh! People at my B&M were begging me to talk to the guy.

I nub pretty low, so I can relate the The Cigster's comment about "Taps." That said, the proper etiquette (in a closed environment with people) is to lean the cigar with foot-side up and opposite part of the ashtray from your neighbor.

Kudos to Dan "The Bug Man" Levitan for modelling what someone should do when in the wild. :)

I drop the butts in my patio chimenea and let them go out on their own.

When I have a fire, I send mixed aromas of oak and cigars wafting thru the neighborhood :stretchgr

I know it's an old thread, but I'll still reply.. Always let it go out on it's own. I've got a friend that crushes his and it makes me cringe every time. A lot of my smoking comes down to aesthetics. :dunno:

If it sucks I crush it...not only crush it but Hulk smash it..crappy sticks get no love. Others burn out with grace.

Time and place dictates. Try to make sure it ends up in the sand or kitty litter filled buckets in smoking areas but a few have ended up on the expressway.

I pretty much always crush mine and then into a fire proof container... I never really thought of the cigar's feelings, but maybe next time I'll let it go out with dignity.

I let mine burn out... only takes a few minutes. Also if you're with company putting it out is considered bad etiquette.
