Now, you might be thinking why on earth is a student talking about a cigarette company? Of course I’m not promoting or writing anything related to “the cigarette” it self but about the name Marlboro… It’s a pretty famous and well known name amongs adults and maybe few teenagers. I always wondered what the name was or was about, and I heard an interesting story related to it.
So, this is how it goes…
There once was a poor man, very poor. Then one day, he falls in love with a woman with an enormous amount of wealth he can’t possibly imagine. The two soon fell in love with each other and decides to get married. But just like any other typical love story, with the disagreement of the girl’s parents, they send her off far far away from him. He, devastated wonders and looks for her for years. Finally, after several years past, he finds her house, and finally meets her on a rainy day in front of the house. But unlike what the guy wished for, the girl tells him that she loved him but that she is getting married tomorrow. The guy with no reaction, simply askes her to stay with him until he finishes one cigarette, so the girl does. Back then cigarettes weren’t made with filters but handrolled. Just like the fast buring cigarette, the time flew by like seconds and soon the girl walked back to the house without even turning back. Ten years past, the guy hears that the girl just lost her husband. When one day he sees her in her car, he stops and tells her that, he still loves her no matter how old or poor she is and asks if she would marry him. The girl in sudden shock, doesn’t know what to say and tells him that she will tell him the next day in front of the same house. But when the man arrived there the next day to see her, she was already gone, tied her self and died. After her death, he started his own small industry which soon became to be the most popular cigarette company… but named after his own experience…
