Well, I don't know about sweating bullets! LOL!
But, obviously my site has not be around as long as most of the others (although it feels like forever, we have only been live about a month), so he must have been in a good mood when I talked to him (since I have heard other people with sites have not gotten them)...

Now I'm not knocking anybody else's but, he like us, know's how good a site you have and the following you have from your fellow B.O.T.L.er's! :applause:
+1 for me. I'll be there next weekend.
Ok guys... Been doing some research.
It looks like most of the smoking places they are setting up at various hotels and restaurants in and around the convention center are for high rollers, bringing in big crowds. (ie, renting out courtyards...etc)
Here's a place a little ways off, but it looks like a cool place to meet up after the convention. I've talked with Marvin, and we're meeting here at 8:30pm Sunday night.

Hope to see everyone there!

Not sure. Perhaps we'll just have to hang at the convention. I'll be making my way back to Dallas via car sometime Monday evening.

This received from Xikar, via email....
New Orleans restaurants and cigar-friendly destinations
After a long day at the IPCPR show our crew will be ready to relax with great food, great wine and great company. We'll also want to enjoy a good cigar, but unfortunately most New Orleans restaurants are no longer cigar-friendly. So we'll compromise: good food, then cigars.
Check out our list below for some great recommendations. Of course, if you are in need of a great accessory in New Orleans, check out your nearest XIKAR retailer first!
CLOSE, BUT NO CIGAR:
Cuvée
The accolades are all well deserved. Enjoy.
MiLa
Husband and wife duo create a must-dine experience
Cochon
Cajun Southern cooking at its best
Herbsaint
French-inspired Southern cuisine on historic Saint Charles Ave.
Emeril's NOLA
BAM! Need we say more?
La Boca
The best Argentinean wines and steaks around
SMOKE 'EM:
Arnaud's
French Quarter killer cigar bar
Broussard's
Hit the beautiful patio for a cigar
Dos Jefe's Cigar Bar
Live music seven nights a week
Windsor Court Hotel: Polo Club Lounge
Elegant patio for lighting up
The Bombay Club
Distinctly New Orleans. Hit the patio to enjoy a cigar.
Ritz Carlton: Library
Guests are welcome to smoke in this 3rd floor library.
