    I'm pre-registered. Fingers crossed to be fast enough to score tickets! Planning on taking the family and in-laws. My father-in-law is an avid smoker as well. We're planning on spending the weekend. He and I will go to the 'Fest and the ladies are planning on shopping all day..and possibly some spa time (so says the wife!)
  • Alex Svenson:
    I will be in attendance at the CAO Event Thursday Night, I will be working the AJ (man o war diesel) Event at the store at Split Rock on Friday (i noticed someone posted about this being in bethlehm but it is actually on the show floor up in the poconos). I will swing by the oliva and perdomo events probably Friday. I will also be at the Rocky Patel event at the bar right after the AJ event. During the actual show I will be working with AJ at the Diesel and Man o War booths. I believe I will also be checking out the Rhino Energy Drink After party. That said, I have not actually made it to the after party in the last three years. 72 straight hours of cigar smoking and whisky drinking takes its toll.
    Now that we all know exactly where you will be it will be easy to stalk you!!! ;-)

    OK so far attending will be: Myself, MrGreenMachine (a helluva bork), Ejenne, millennium115, ENFIDL, xIcedGuardianx, newbiesmoker24, bearb (maybe?), PsychoSJG, RampMonkey, SanmanIam, and TatuajeVI or however it's spelled, this will be a nice little C.com herf at the event should we somehow decided where to meet up (obvious idea imo would be AJ's booth so we can all harass Alex Svenson at the same time^ ^)
    This is a great list!!! Once everyone "officially" gets their tickets we will have to find a time/place to meet up. Is everyone registering for general admission, VIH, or cigar nut? I am trying to get VIH tickets personally, I am just not a good enough smoker to handle the cigar nut package.

    Maybe I should have taken a closer look and got some tickets. I would have come by but I think it is too late to get tickets now.
    it's only an hour or so to Bethlehem for you, maybe you could swing by the store and pick one up when they go on sale? I may end up with an extra also, so if you wanted it I could help you out there (I am buying 4, and as of right now they are all spoken for, but there is still a chance that one of the guys wont be able to make it).
    Thanks brother. I'm gonna see if my friend is around that day before I even attempt to call in. I'll be seeing him tonight so we'll see.

    Me too! This sucks, I came into work over an hour early just to make sure I could get my tickets and then the site crapped out on me. I'm not gonna lie, I'm pissed.......
  • HaybletHayblet Posts: 2,429 ✭✭✭
    some people on another site bought more tickets than they probably should have and are unsure if they are even going, seriously wtf possesses people to do things like that?

    I'd guess they'll try to scalp them to people that didn't get them in the sale or auction maybe? I dunno, people will try anything to make a quick buck.

    A tip for next year - use the link in your email to "refresh" if this happens again. I am not very read up on computers, but someone told me that it's the best way..? It worked for me though.

    Hopefully you fellas can get some tickets elsewhere and we can all meet up!
