  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Vegas Next Weekend

I will be at Lake Las Vegas this week from April 28 to May 2. Unfortunately I will not be able to get to Las Vegas until the evenings of Friday (30th) and Saturday (1st). If any Vegas BOTL's want to get together, please post on this thread or PM me.

Do any of you guys know anything about the Man Cave Cigar Lounge in Henderson? Please let me know if you know any other good lounges in Henderson.

Jason

I will have to see how my schedule is, I have a 3 day golf tourney going on Fri-Sun. Man Cave is OK, kind of pricey. I have only been in there 1 time. Just a little further is Pheasant, I would go there, extra 10 minute drive. Tobacco Leaf in Henderson would be a better choice for me over Man Cave. Believe it is on Eastern Ave.

Nice, I will do some searches and figure out where these other places are. I also found The Havana Cigar Company. It is in Montelago Village. I'm sure it is a "sticker shock" lounge. However, it has a bar and a wine cellar :grin:

That figures, that entire development has gone into the toilet over the past few years.
Thats the only reason I say it may not be open. I heard they were getting out of the retail side of cigars and only focusing on events, conferences, etc. Another place to try is Cigar Box (Frey Boys) on Western. They carry a lot of Fuente, Ashton, etc.

I think Havana Cigar boor is still open, because I get email from them about once a week. It is a nice place if it is still open. I almost bought a house in Lake Las Vegas last year, but it watt the hell out there.

Give me a call, and I'll meet you on a Friday or Saturday

Just let us all know what day and where you want to meet up. I'll try to make it out––Friday I should be free, but Saturday I'm less sure about.

Sorry I missed you guys.

The trip was kind of screwed. Hit Casa Weds. night for a few hours. The waitress was wearing a black non see-through dress...WTF. The one waitress was bitchy and didn't smile once. The mojitos were weak and the manager was a spaz. Manager got pissed when I asked about the Pete Johnson episode...lol. The Havana Cigar Company at Lake Las Vegas is still open, but it has a horrible selection of cigars and the prices are high. Ended up drinking some bourbon there on Thursday afternoon. Almost blew chunks there. Not from drinking, but the rank smell from the 50+ year old skank tweeker lady who works there. It was horrible!!! At one point, I went into the restroom to make sure I hadn't soiled myself...it wasn't me. Wanted to pop me dad, for staying in there for so long. Got ditched on the Strip Thursday night. Took a lovely $60 cab ride back to the Lake...at 3 AM. Friday was a no go because my dad had an allergic reaction (shellfish) at The Wynn...that was fun...not. On Saturday we both decided to get the hell out of Dodge!

Damn Jason, after that experience I would probably have to think twice about going back to Vegas.....Naw!

Why didn't you call on Wednesday, I could have came down? What Pete Johnson episode at Casa?
I didn't know I was going there until about 9:30 PM. Figured that was too late to call you. On Thursday my dad and I were with clients at Hanks at the Green Valley Ranch from 5 PM to 11 PM or so (That was a lovely bill:popeyes:). After that is when my drunk a$$ got ditched/separated at Binions...I don't even know where the hell it was...maybe old school Vegas? All I know is the ATM sodomized me at Binions. I was hung over ALL DAY Friday and was actual sleeping when the front desk called me and said security and the paramedics were with my dad was in the lobby. I intended to call you Saturday morning, but my Dad's face still looked like Quasimodo (swelling) and he wanted to leave. Will definitely hook up with you next time Don. I will be solo or with a few people who are coming for CIGARS and people watching only.

No problem Jason, just let me know when you are coming again.

I don't think it was Pete, I think it was James Sucklin...Pete just re-tweeted the post.

Here is the tweet:

On Saturday 24th April 2010, @jamessuckling said:

Just went to Casa de Fuente in Vegas at midnight and was told I could drink the owners rum in plastic at $12 a shot! Now thrown out. Not coming back soon.

Regardless, a priceless move.
