Well, depends on where you're trying to do it. Anywhere actually just open? Yeah, no law on smoking in public, yet.

Nah, you're not gonna get arrested, but i'd say not all places in DC are necessarily "friendly" to cigar smokers. Just try to sit off to the side and it should be fine.

It depends on where the outside is and distance from an entrance. And there is the issue like outside as in the courtyard of say the RRB. Even though you are outside it is still considered government property and no smoking.

Give this place a shot if you have time - http://www.shellysdc.com/ ....for the atmosphere of course. I think one would need to take out a small loan to buy cigars from these guys.

I was just in DC last week and my buddy and I were walking around the mall smoking cigars. Got some weird looks but that was about it
