I would like to make a venue change. After talking with chuck in the chat tonight I would rather have this meet up at churchills in old Town. I will be there next Friday around 7:30. Hope this still works for everyone that was planning to come sand I look forward to meeting you all
I looked up Churchill's. Looks like an amazing stick selection. As a heads up, it looks like they do charge a $5 cutting fee for bringing in your own cigars. I have not been there, but if they are like the Zarka's in Temecula, they could charge that $5 for any stick you bring in regardless of if you smoke it or not. This would definitely reduce the risk of hand grenades. This could be a good thing, like a DMZ for Hand to Hand combat.

Churchills in old town is snug... but I'm in, regardless.

And they can be sticklers over the cutting fees. I've seen of happen.

It is a little tight, I didn't expect so many people to be interested. I didn't actually know about the cutting fee, I've only been there once.

Heck, lemme check with the wife... I don't have a cutting fee at Casa de Sean, but it's a byo scenario.
And here I thought I would be lucky and get away unscathed. Oh well, @sean has been kind enough to offer up his patio as the battlefield. I don't have a headcount so if you plan to go just send him a PM for the address.

Ok, lets try this one more time. It seems some of the guys travelling from out of town are staying near downtown so I think it might be a little easier to meet at churchills (even if that means all these "bombings" will have to happen in a parking lot). I really appreciate the hospitality from @sean and I hate changing plans again but for convenience sake I think Churchills will make more sense. If this screws some people over I am sorry. I'm sure the next time I make the trip across the country we can try to work something else out but I am trying to pack a lot into one weekend. I hope you all understand and I hope some of you can still make it out.

Also I believe I deserve the title of worst organizer ever...

I am staying at the holiday inn express which is down the road two miles. If any other out of towers. Are looking for lodging. They are affordable and have a cigar and spirits friendly patio. See you Friday.

***Threadjack*** For the guys that may arrive at Churchill's early, take a short 6 minute walk to Racine and Laramie (they close at 8pm). They had a lot of hard to find stuff last time I was there and hidden gems with some age on them...they have pipe tobacco for those interested as well...
