IPCPR is an amazing display of everything "cigar" . . . all the manufactures, growers, distributors, etc. 300,000 square feet convention hall all dressed up to be CIGAR LAND! I used to get a pass when it was in Las Vegas before introducing the Stinky Cigar Ashtray in 2004. Now, I get to go each year. It's worth the effort. And, if you can't get a pass to the show, at least go to enjoy all the after parties.
Why don't one of you NOLA locals pick a night and set up a Herf? I suggest Wednesday evening at Don Leoncio Cigars - 430 Canal Street. The show closed at 5:00 but by time they go to dinner and get to Don Leoncio's, it's 8:00 PM. Someone needs to make up a Cigar Asylum poster and get there early to hold down a table. Or, you could all wear funny hats!
