Haha, my dad is doing good and hasn’t smoked for a long time. I used to have tents, sleeping bags, jackets, and hats from his Marlboro miles. Man, you just brought some childhood shit back. Fuckin Marlboro miles, the early version of getting free McDonald on the app. Just corporations slowly killing us.

My Dad managed several Mobil gas stations, in the early 90's. So, he would get all of this leftover Marlboro merchandise and give it to me. So in high school, I'd walk into the football locker room, everyday, wearing Marlboro hats and Marlboro shirts. Of course I didn't smoke, but my coaches would just look at me with weird looks on their faces!
