    Great times, I'm gonna miss those laughs where your face hurts. It really felt like a really, really long Vherf. Well the pictures prove I still got a long way to go.... Next year I hope to hit a hockey game and see more of downtown. Very cool city with some damn good pizza and beer.. Didn't anyone mention last night's special guest? Alex Svenson, the man, the myth, the legend from Cigar.com came by and hung out....very cool guy!

    You guys started something with my wife. She spent most of the night last night looking at the sprint sale and shopping on the site! I believe you will be seeing her on the v-herf as well now. I believe her exact words where..."These guys just make you want to smoke a cigar and have fun?"
    Team O'Donnell FTW!

    You guys are brilliant. I'm glad this annual event has grown, and it is such an amazing time. We had a good 20 people there on Saturday night, and Friday night about 15-18 depending if you count the different forum guys. The beer tasting was amazing, and the scotch, bourbon, and rum...The quote I heard a few times...you guys travel all out...

    There were some great stories that came out of that night...from Curt being delivered to applebees in a Mail Truck, to Dyno-Mite..oh wait, to HOCKEY, to a proton pack, and Ethel...but, the stories are meant to stay at the herf, and I will leave them there. It was great to see a lot of you again, and the new attendees great to finally meet you in person. A big thank you to Alex for coming out.

    Another successful Christmas herf has passed, and all i can think about as I stare at my computers at work is damn i wish it was last Friday. but anyway, Thanks again guys for making this trip amazing. Look forward to some vherfs.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!

    I know I don't get on and post here a lot but I had a blast with everyone in Chicago. Got to meet some new people and visit with friends. I look forward to seeing a lot of you as I travel and Im sure there will be more at CFEST. Until next time, I hope everyone has a good holiday and safe travels. Be Well!

    As always, great people make great memories and experiences. Glad to see everyone is or has made it home safely.

    For those new this year...hopefully the pictures of Chi-Herf 1 and II now make more sense? There are obviously quite a few stories behind each one that....well...cant quite be told, as you now know. So what goes on in Vegas....


    Until the next time. Be well everyone.

    I must say that the friendship, camaraderie and overall great experience is something that shows that this group of BOTL's and SOTL's are quality people. I told Jim - Kingjk that next year we are going in on Thursday night. Thank you all.

    the extra day is certainly worth it imho. Just allows u to relax and connect....esp as the group has grown from the initial 8. In 14 hrs (noon at 8 to8) til 2 at casa and hotel just isn't long enough.

    Just wanted to say I had a great time, seeing all u guys again, and seing several of my brothers for the 1st time was just unbelievable. Great cigars, great liquor, and great botl. I will never forget it. Thanks for everyone who contributed. And again. HOCKEY
