Does the 20/80 rule apply to you?

I am curious (for those of you who are bored) what your "stick percentages" are by brand/manufacturer, and if the 20/80 rule applies to you (20% of all the different brands in your collection, represent 80% or more of your sticks?)

The rule apples to me.
19% of my manufacturuers represent 81% of my sticks.

My breakouts (rounded off):
Padilla - 30%
Gran Habano - 26%
5Vegas - 10%
Gurkha - 6%
Cohiba - 5%
Flor de Oliva - 4%

Then it drops off to a few dozen brands at .5% to 2%

I need to expand my horizons dang it!!

    I conform (unfortunately) to the 98% rule... I smoked 98% of all my cigars :)

    I can't count. Having really bad math skills this week. I have almost every Gurkha Cigar ever made and a ton of Viaje. Everything else is almost all single sticks. So I would say 2 cigar brands make up 50% of my collection while the other 50% is a huge variety.

    +1. AJ and Don Pepin. The most prominently featured brand I have in my humi is Kristoff, but's that's because it's the only box I've bought thus far.

    Mine is a mixture. I have a decent amount of AJ, RP, Newman, Alec Bradley and a mixture of other mfgs. I have started to become a fan of DPG, and can forsee his count going up in the humi.
