The Cheat's Smoking

The Cheat is addicted to smoking. While he usually smokes cigarettes, he also smokes the occasional old-style pipe. He normally smokes Trophy Lights cigarettes, usually after a period of stress or fatigue. Though sometimes his friends will try to get him to stop smoking, their attempts are never too successful. The Trophy Lights have been seen in a locker in Coach Z's locker room, where The Cheat reportedly sleeps sometimes. The Cheat has sometimes been known to smoke the wrong end of the cigarette.
