The Truth Behind the Myth

Whenever you get a new pack of cigarettes, you must first unwrap the pack and flip the lucky. The lucky is the first cigarette removed, which is turned around and replaced in the pack, destined to be the last cigarette of the pack smoked. The lucky is just another one of those signs that bond seemingly different people together into a sort of 'cigarette' club. This is because, in all the world there really isn't anything as beautiful as smoking. Why is this done???

I've been trying to find the answer to this for a long time.. So here, I'm asking you all the following questions:

1. Do you follow this custom?

2. If you do then what is the reason you do it?

3. Where did u think this custom originated from and why?

My theory:

Some Asks: "can i bum a cig?"

I answer: "um...well, all i have left is my lucky"

Someone then says: "oh okay, that's cool dude. i'll ask someone else."

Would really love to learn where this tradition/custom started..

P.S. - I'm marking smokers/Non Smokers/ Quiters/ Druggists/ rocknrollas/ people been in rehab/Not been in rehab etc etc.. Just to get mixed view on the topic..
