A friend took some pics and we wil see if he gets them to me.  It was a cool event, a few of the major players were there, C Newman, AF Jr, P's brother, etc.

Got to see Cigar Daves live broadcast, that was pretty cool.   We met John, the owner of the new shop in town there, the Cigar Cave in Palm Harbor.  Gave us a cigar, and we later went to lunch in Ybor City.  He picked up lunch, which we didnt expect.  

They were trying to break some record for the longest rolled cigar at like 180 feet.  I dont know if they did, unless they fixed where it broke somewhere in the middle :lmao:

In all it was a good event, lots of people and great weather (what do you expect in FL, right?)
