    It's a great excuse for a cross country road trip.

    Might be out of my budget. $300 is a lot of money for the event. $150 to $200 is more realistic for me.

    Sounds like an awesome time. Unfortunately the only time I will wear a tie is when the mortician puts it on me lol

    I went to a gala last year at the chop house to support of local community college the tickets we about the same and I didn't even get cigars but the food was well worth it.

    +1 And a tour of the facility and leave from the Gala with Aj straight to Esteli! Haha. I'm really tempted. If's right in the middle of my planned trip to SE Asia though. Choices Choices.

    Why does all the good stuff happen 3,000 miles away from me?
    In Fumo Pax
    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    Yes it will be tux or atleast a very nice suit and tie. I expect tickets to be around for atleast a week due to the relative high cost but I can't honestly say.

    Damn, I'd hate to feel underdressed in a suit and tie, so I think the 100-200 bucks for a tux rental prices me out of this one. Hope it goes well.

    It did, but I'm not about to be the only one slummin' it, lol. If we get a group together of suit-wearing BOTL's, I think I'm swinging it again.

    Several guys asking why in PA. Just a heads up. If we had it in your state, we would have to start charging state sales and tobacco taxes on all shipments in that state. We want to keep prices great for everyone.

    Black Tie Optional. If you don't wear a tux, we would prefer a suit. I hate ties too. I wouldn't be offended if someone showed up without a tie. In fact, I would sympathize.

    It is the first year so to be honest, we are not sure. We do believe it will sell out so I believe it is just a matter of how fast.

    I'm trying to work this with some friends. As of now maybe 3 - 4 of us. Who knows though as ticket buying time gets closer. Could be more or none. YOu guys know how people are.

    Re: Pricing. Believe it or not, to book the Sands, get a full open bar with premium drinks, massive dinner, entertainment, the cost per head is extremely expensive. That said, what money is made is benefiting the charity.

    the tux makes you feel a little like james bond though. order some martinis shaken not stirred a couple gorgeous gals, and cigars and gambling...speaks 00 to me.

    Looks like alot of fun. If I can get one of my buddies interested maybe I can do it, it would be a long drive by myself.
