How about a FREE Riccardo Santia Corn Cob Pipe?

As I mentioned in a recent video (below) we are looking for a "Naming Convention" for the Riccardo Santia Ultimate Corn Cob Pipes.  The link leads to a Wikipedia page that sort of explains what a naming convention is, but in general terms it would be like naming the individual pipes after the names of Popeye characters, or after citys, or lakes, etc.  The prize for the winning convention will be the new "First Generation" Riccardo Santia pipe shown in the photo.

The contest runs through July 6th, and there is seriously a bonus if your naming convention is chosen, AND you shared it in the form of a Video Response on Youtube.  Good luck!
Here's the video where I explain the naming contest:

This is an update where I share some new Ultimate Corn Cob Pipes and give more details on the contest.

I pasted the URL for my YouTube response, I'm not entirely sure that it will hyperlink, but you could search for Santia pipe naming question and find it if it doesn't work. So, here's my idea. When I look at the pipes, I don't see Canada. I see a Spanish influence. Not to say that is a bad thing, but I think we need something to suggest that these pipe are from Canada. I read some research about using animals in the naming of products and the success that many marketing companies have seen with that. My thought is since the pipes have a rustic feel to them and some even look like they could have been made from antlers and such, what would happen if we named them after animals found in Canada. For instance, The Moose, The Elk, and maybe even The Beaver. These aren't necessarily Canada specific, but I feel like it starts to tie in with the origin without coming out and naming them after provinces. Anyway, I would happily smoke a Grizzly pipe lol. What do you think?
