Should I start smoking cigars?

Im 16 and I tried smoking a cigar the other night and I enjoyed it. All my friends in my grade smoke pot so I was thinking smoking cigars would be a good alternative. They are just swisher sweets and I would only smoke like 1 every once in a while. Plus at least I could do something while all my friends were getting high.

No one in my family that I know of has ever had cancer but would smoking these cigars be somthing I should be concerned about? My Dad told me that the famous Johan Cruyff chain smoked when he was in the locker room at half time so I don't think it should affect my ability to play soccer.

Please dont tell me that im too young and that I shouldnt smoke at all. As if I havent heard that enough already.

    yeh defenitely smoke cigars instead of pot...cigars taste better than smokes anyway and its better for you than pot.

    i doubt it will affect your sport that much seeing as you wont even do it that much...just save it for when your mates are smoking

    the only thing about cigars that ive heard is that it has a higher chance of throat cancer than normal smoking...but whatever

    but other than that your young....worry about cancer when your old!

    Yes you should smoke cigars they are great. Swisher sweets aren't bad to start out with I guess but when you get older you can advance to some much better ones. Smoking a cigar every once in a while is not going to hurt anything, just remember cigars are not intended to be inhaled habitually. Simply invite the smoke into your mouth for a little rendezvous with your taste buds then slowly blow the smoke out. It is a wonderful thing to sit back and relax with a great cigar.

    im actually going to say something useful, not the regular don't do it that you've already heard.first off,i know the feeling, i recentley quit smoking cigars after a year, i did it cuz my friends were doing it, and i may be addicted cuz i always think about cigars. If you want to do it as an alternitive to smoking pot i'll say this: Pot is definatley more fun then cigars, you cannot get addicted to pot and cigars are worse if you smoke them more often and i found that as you smoked more, you wanted to smoke more and more so it definatley can be worse than pot, my advice is if you are going to take up cigars, don't do it a lot same with weed, once a week/at parties on weekends is the only time i do it. there is also a lot more 50 year olds still smoking cigars because of addicted then 50 year old pot heads...

    Well if you are going to smoke cigars, smoke premium cigars, not swishers. You will enjoy premium cigars better. Or better yet, get a pipe and some pipe tobacco instead. The ladies will love the smell of pipe smoke.

    As long as you don't inhale, which you DON'T do with cigars, you should be ok - hence the reason Cruyff was ok smoking cigars.

    However, at least in the U.S., smoking cigars/cigarettes under the age of 18 is illegal

    From a health perspective, I suppose it's never good. From the perspective of pleasure, I think it's equally enjoyable at any age. I know that I first tried it when I was 14.
