About Us

The first thing you need to know about the ‘8 Donkeys’ is that there are in fact not eight of us. But that is just math and therefore unimportant. ‘8 Donkeys’ is the well-oiled public relations arm of The Cigar Club of Northern Virginia (CCNV) established in 1996. And by well-oiled we mean the occasionally inane and oft-times drunken ramblings of a group of men rapidly approaching middle age with the grace of Frank “The Tank” doing his gymnastic floor routine.

‘8 Donkeys’ will strive to represent the culmination of millennia of academic debate and philosophical dialogues wherein all of life’s most difficult questions will be brought into focus under the white hot light of our logic and intellectual veracity. We will also talk about beer, cigars, politics, football, women, cars, beer, vacations, family life, poker, bars, stadiums, baseball, roadtrips, history, music, art, cooking, blues states, red states, careers, Bo Jackson, video games, television, movies, Bo Jackson in video games, beer, -ism’s, economics, cheese steaks, fitness, lack of fitness, racing, conspiracy theories, stupid people, chocolate, physics, clamato, literature, karaoke, liquor, and any other damn thing we want. You are encouraged to read, comment, and join the ‘8 Donkeys’ revolution.
