FEELER: 'Open Carry Cigar Night' at Pit Stop Pine Island ~ early December?

[melensdad]

Anyone in Northwest Indiana up for another Open Carry Cigar Night at the Pine Island Pit Stop smoke shop/cigar lounge? For those who don't know, the Pit Stop Pine Island store is located on US30 inside Pine Island Plaza on the east side of Schererville, IN.

If people are interested I'd be willing to host one during the FIRST WEEK of December probably either Wednesday Dec 7 or Thursday Dec 8. Probably run the event from 5pm to 9pm (closing time). There is no factory rep signed up for free cigars, but I'd be willing to put cigars on sale at 25% off for the night for INGO members.

What say you all? Its getting too cold outside count on good weather for outdoor shoots, switching to a social event indoors is starting to make more sense.

OH, and I'd point out, just like all the prior Open Carry nights:

. . . cigar smoking is optional
. . . openly carrying a gun is optional​

Talking about guns is mandatory!

Thursday would work perfect for me. I'm in either day but Thursday works best for me.

If either day works then I'm guessing that The Walking Dead show on AMC is not scheduled to be broadcast on either of those nights

Although I would love to attend, that much smoke would probably have me sick the next day. Good Luck.

 

[NapalmFTW]

Sounds good... I shall attend'eth. Hopefully someone can teach me the ways of blowing and sucking... erm... let me rephrase that.



Another drain on my wallet

 

[melensdad]

Wow, lots of votes and the thread is still very new. Looks like Thursday is the overwhelming choice so far.

Thursday currently works better for me, but who knows what my schedule will look like in 6 weeks. No matter which way the vote goes it looks like there will probably be enough interest for me to put together the event. I'll probably get some pastry or a meat tray or something to snack on during the evening.

Careful with talk like that we may vote you off the island

That and my off days are Wednesday and Thursday. But Wednesday I usually sleep and be lazy all day and night. Thursday is my party day, are you gonna have some Onyx at the pine island store? If not I could do a tabak especial, lol.

Heh heh.

It will give me time away from the wife, so it's all good.

wow, didn't realize the shop was that close to the college, i'm like a 2 minute drive from there. while i'm not a smoker, i wouldn't mind stopping by.

It does get smoky but there is no pressure to try a cigar. At prior Open Carry cigar nights I'd say roughly 20% have not smoked a cigar. This is really just a social event, but as the weather is making it harder for shooters to meet outside, its nice to still hang out and talk guns.

 

[melensdad]

What say you all, are we going to have an Open Carry Cigar Night on Thursday Dec 7 at the Pine Island store?

It looks like we have about a dozen people interested so far.

The 7th Wednesday and the 8th is Thursday so witch one is it. I hope it is thursday night. Wednesday my son has cub scouts.

 

[melensdad]

opps . . . SORRY, it would be THURSDAY Dec 8

 

[lonehoosier]

I am plaining on being their unless if one of the kids have some event come up. I can bring some kind of dessert.

I could probably talk darkkevin into going. I know I have a work holiday party on the 8th, but I can leave that whenever I want.
How smoky does it get in there? I'm a non-smoker that wants an idea of what I'd be walking into.

 

[Andy219]

Count me in. The 8th sounds perfect.

Totally depends on the turnout. We've had 20 people SMOKING in there with standing room only smoking and its like walking into Los Angeles SMOG and we've had 20 people in there with standing room only but only a COUPLE SMOKING and its not a big deal.

Much of it is weather related too, we try to prop the door open from time to time during events, but if its really cold that won't work.

So I can't give you a good answer, almost none or a lot, depending on how many people choose to light up a cigar.

Thanks! Hopefully I can twist darkkevin's arm enough to talk him into going. I look forward to meeting some of the fine INGO members.
