gotta admit, I am not a fan of that . . I completely plan on buying cigars, but I prefer to actually light up ones I would bring . . . dislike that alotHey all! Gonna make this quickly, at work. I just spoke to Jason. He confirmed our "reservation" got 7-10, Dec 2, 7pm-11pm. He will not be charging us the $100 reservation fee. He also said he tried, but couldn't find anymore UF4s and where
As for bringing your own cigar, he said Mike was pretty stern on a $10 cutting fee, even if you buy what you smoke. Choice is yours, but they have a pretty nice humidor.
See you all in a few days for some Hawkey and some smokes!
I'll buy the same size as I brought to smoke, remove the band....viola!gotta admit, I am not a fan of that . . I completely plan on buying cigars, but I prefer to actually light up ones I would bring . . . dislike that alot
I mentioned that as well; That our guys mostly like their own, stored for few months, and would of course buy some that night. Whelp, get all of us together and voice our concern! I wanted to bring a few myself, probably still will.gotta admit, I am not a fan of that . .

thing is... with me, they are losing business. if i could smoke what i bring, by default i would buy 3 or 4 cigars. now that we know there is a cutting fee, i will buy exactly what i will be smoking, which is probably 2 at most.gotta admit, I am not a fan of that . .

I've always bought equivalent to what I smoke but I always bring my own because I know that they've been stored properly and at the correct rH. Too many B&M humidors are excessively humidified and that makes for a nasty-ass cigar. I'm still planning on coming because I want to see you guys and meet the newbs but this is definitely a reason to avoid the place in the future.thing is... with me, they are losing business. if i could smoke what i bring, by default i would buy 3 or 4 cigars. now that we know there is a cutting fee, i will buy exactly what i will be smoking, which is probably 2 at most.
i get it though... it's their business, their rules. dont like it? then find another place.

Personally, i don't think it's bad etiquette at all. I typically save my bands for the same reason, but i don't yet have a project in mind just yet. They are just piling up. However, and this is just me, i feel like whatever you are making will be better if all the bands that you use are from cigars you smoked personally.Side note: don't be weirded out of I ask you guys if you save your cigar bands when you're done. I collect them and beer bottle tops for a home bartop project hopefully in the next few years. Bad cigar etiquette?
At this point, i don't really think we need to. Let's not push the issue. Let's just accept it and enjoy the game and each other's company.... And maybe use a different location for the next herfWe'll talk about it Saturday...
Exactly the biggest issue I have. . Was planning the sameyup
and if I bring my pipe like I was planning to, they gonna charge me $10 per bowl because I'm not smoking from a tin that I buy there? Ridiculous, just saying
Ya I hear ya. The Hawks better show up to play, that's my main concern with Saturday night haha

I ALWAYS buy at least as many as I smoke, and usually premium NCs, at the B&Ms I smoke at. But if they are going to charge me $10 per cigar I bring, so I will pay $20-30 to smoke 2-3 cigars, (tell me if this makes sense)....then that's my contribution to the B&M, and I won't buy any cigars. Is that bad form under these circumstances?thing is... with me, they are losing business. if i could smoke what i bring, by default i would buy 3 or 4 cigars. now that we know there is a cutting fee, i will buy exactly what i will be smoking, which is probably 2 at most.
Good question. Definitely need some input from a vet here, but I would assume if they're charging us to smoke our own, regardless of if we buy cigars or not, where's the incentive then?I ALWAYS buy at least as many as I smoke, and usually premium NCs, at the B&Ms I smoke at. But if they are going to charge me $10 per cigar I bring, so I will pay $20-30 to smoke 2-3 cigars, (tell me if this makes sense)....then that's my contribution to the B&M, and I won't buy any cigars. Is that bad form under these circumstances?
i get what you are saying, but lets look at the math...I ALWAYS buy at least as many as I smoke, and usually premium NCs, at the B&Ms I smoke at. But if they are going to charge me $10 per cigar I bring, so I will pay $20-30 to smoke 2-3 cigars, (tell me if this makes sense)....then that's my contribution to the B&M, and I won't buy any cigars.
