Busted! Reds reported after smoking victory cigars in clubhouse

Last of the small time C.G.B. Spender’s!

Impressionable utes weren’t the only ones watching when Cincinnati Reds owner Bob Castellini passed out victory cigars and then lit up after his team clinched the NL Central title at Great American Ball Park on Tuesday.

Also watching at home on television were at least five whistle blowers who noted that the Reds were violating Ohio’s indoor smoking ban. They called Cincinnati’s health department to report the team and now the Cincinnati Enquirer reports the club is under investigation.

In case you’re wondering, the answer is yes — I’m extremely sorry to report that there are people living among us who would actually do this.

Look, my non-smoker self enjoys big gulps of clean indoor air as much as anybody. I can’t, however, imagine what kind of situational misery would make someone watch a one-time free-for-all scene where alcohol is freely being sprayed into the eyes of others and decide that he or she needs to tattle on a few puffs from a stogie at a place they’re not even at.
