Bocock Brothers Premium Cigars has released the Mizzou Stadium Series: Memorial Stadium 100 Year Celebration, marking the 100th season of the University of Missouri’s Memorial Stadium. The stadium opened Oct. 2, 1926, as a memorial to 112 University of Missouri alumni who died in World War I. The 6 x 52 Toro is packaged in 10-count, hand-painted boxes designed to resemble the stadium. Pricing was not announced.
The cigar features a Honduran Maduro wrapper, a Nicaraguan binder, and Honduran, Nicaraguan, and Paraguayan fillers. It is available through Bocock Brothers’ website, at LIT Cigar Lounge in Chesterfield, Missouri, and LIT Pipe & Cigar in St. Charles, Missouri.
“To play a role in Mizzou’s centennial is a genuine honor,” Bryant Bocock, co-founder of Bocock Brothers Premium Cigars, said in a press release. “We wanted to craft a release that truly honors a century of Saturdays at Faurot Field, giving Tigers fans something they can savor on game day and proudly keep as a piece of history.”
