A repost from March 2005
Maryland law says:
"Unarmed fox chasing is not classified as hunting by law, and is therefore not subject to DNR hunting regulations. Permits may be required to chase foxes on certain public lands. All activities on DNR owned and managed properties are subject to DNR public land regulations. With the exception of unarmed fox chasing, fox hunting with the aid of dogs is prohibited during the deer firearms season."

I'm confused-are Maryland 100's a real product? If not - that is one artful piece of Phototshop . Makes me want to take up smoking and indulge in some unarmed fox chasing with the horsey set. Looks pretty idyllic from here.
A real package. Not sure if it's around anymore, but it was once.

A very good, long-time friend has fox 'hunted' in Maryland on horseback with the pink coats, hounds, horns, the whole show for decades and happily admits the entire group has never actually killed a fox. They do give the critters a fair amount of exercise, though.
Maybe that's the Maryland equivalent of "Fishing?" "Nope. Drowning worms."
The same is true in Virginia. Fox have too many holes to escape into, and in both MD and VA and the rest of the US, "fox hunting" is really dressing up fancy and riding around whiel maybe chasing the dogs. In the US we control fox with trapping where that is needed (and generally it is not).

Consult The Google and buy your original ad poster from The Ebay. Here's the description: "1971 Maryland 100's Menthol Filter Cigarettes. America's first Made~for~Menthol blend."
Reminds me of those, "You can take Salem out of the country but you can't take the country out of Salem" ads. As if filling your lungs with cig smoke would be as refreshing as a lungful of country air. Salem was huge for a long time, so maybe the marketing worked!
