Default Re: Setting off fire alarms

A little over a year ago I was at a week of business meetings in Troy, MI.
Well, we have a hospitality suite with booze and grub every evening.
I always bring tons of cigars and share with everyone who is interested.
One evening we got sick of going outside to smoke so we called down to the front desk to ask if we could smoke in the hospitality suite since we were spending a TON of cash with the hotel and had pretty much filled it anyway.
They said of course we could.
That's where things went downhill.
It seems that four or five cigars will set off the smoke detectors, and in a hotel that goes in the bad column.

Fire Marshall Bill was not a happy camper.

Again this year, after many drinks, we called the front desk.... same hotel... same staff.... they said yes.... we thought about it and remembered the year prior... even us drunkards had better judgement and refrained... well, mostly.... just one cigar at a time was lit.
