mrcoin Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Just hung up with Rob. Weather seems to be the only factor that might cause a problem with Harry Caray's. So to rule out any problems involving weather Rob advises that we should go with an in-doors location. Someone that can set this up please take over now. I'm not sure if Belicosos is the only option here or not, but Rob seemed comfortable with it. LMK what you guys decide to do.

alexgtp Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Address: Belicoso Cigar Lounge 15443 S. 94th Avenue Orland Park, IL. 60452 708 226-9060 Address:94 West 15410 S 94th Ave Orland Park, IL 60462 (708) 364-9494 If anyone has any connections at any other Cigar Shop and can make it happen Please post up. I am open and willing to drive to any location. The only reason I suggested Belicoso is because it is my home shop, And the 2 managers are very good friends of mine. And they seemed very open to the idea of hosting a bunch of cigar smoking mad men! Rob..I will be in Vegase with the Managers from the store. We can discuss details at that time In the mean time if anyone else can make it happen Please make it so. -Alex
alexgtp Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 On a side note. July 20th is my birthday! So FOH can help me celebrate my 35th!!:-D
bosipipes Posted June 24, 2008 Posted June 24, 2008 If it's at Belicoso count me in as well!! It will give me the chance to meet some of you guys.
gacigarman Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I may make it. It could be tough since I have to go to a wedding in Milwaukee on Saturday night (staying there) and a flight out of ORD on Sunday night at 8:00 pm. Rosemont would have worked well. Oh well!
BobLobLaw Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I think we have a final location, did we end up with a final start time? Depending on our start time I will likely be in early and out early.
smokum Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Lets figure on meeting up between 1 - 1:30 pm on Sunday » 20th July at Belicoso.

I asked this a long while ago and still have no idea about what the deal is with bringing our cigars? Does everyone just bring a bunch of randoms? If so, how many? Are we expected to buy everything we smoke there? Sorry if they are dumb questions, I just have no idea! :-D
Skyboss24 Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 Hey Rob! Kels from Denver here! I just relocated out to Chicago and would be happy to come along and light up with you and the boys. Got room for me? And would be happy to getclued in on any informalities that goalong with one of these Chicago get togethers. Thanks guys!
mr joe Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 Hi FOH, I am new to this forum, live in Chicago and have been to Belicoso Cigar Lounge (excellent store). If this is open to anybody I would like to join in on Sunday. Having never been to one of these I would like to know what to bring/buy/expect. Thanks, Joe
alexgtp Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 Gentleman Everyone is welcome! The more the merrier. You can bring whatever you can smoke. Alot of ppl for herfs tend to bring in their Otterboxes filled with cigars to trade and giveaway. Of course it is always proper ettiquette to purchase something from the store. Afterall they are provinding a place for us to hang out free Pop , coffe, water and expressos! Plus they have the best assortment of cigars I have seen at any store in IL.

habanohal Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 SO Belicosas is set in stone. What are time frames for the day?
Roy R. Frush Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Uh oh, this party just took a turn south. I booked my flight today... Cheap too. Any folks in NYC wanna make this, United is offering those weekend deals where you fly on Sat and must stay until Mon or Tues for $229. Looking forward to meeting some of the Chi regulars! Rob not so much. Having met him in NY, I can say he's nothing like his internet persona. I've never encountered such a belligerent and repugnant fellow before. I actually mistook him for Ken...:wink: See you all on Sunday!
El Presidente Posted July 16, 2008 Author Posted July 16, 2008 » SO Belicosas is set in stone. What are time frames for the day? It's on mate. I hope to catch up with Alex tomorrow in Vegas. Aim for 1:30 at Belicosos :-)
