Most of the cigar shops (the good ones anyway) in the upstate new york area cleared out and moved down to PA or FL. I don't blame em, but I can't see myself ever going to an event unless I take a one hour trip down to NYC.......and pay super premium prices there. Looks like I picked a bad time to pick up cigars. Just enough time to fall in love and be abandoned
My area suffers from lack of shops too, there is really only one around me, there are a couple of others but they sort of suck. One down in Salem is nice though but that's far from me. It's sad when a place like NEW YORK has sparse pickings... sad indeed.
We have some decent ones here in San Diego but I still have never been to an event - One shop always holds their events on Tuesday nights which is impossible for me to make it to - The others are always on Fridays but I haven't had a chance to go - There is an Oliva event coming up on the 8th of this month which I may try to go to
Hell i havent seen any good events in our area for a long time, Nestor Mirannda was i Sacramento a while Back and Hays got to meet him.
How far are you from Fresno Oz? There is going to be a Drew Estate dinner in November and the Dirty Rat and JD4 will be the featured cigars. Would love to attend that one.
