Cigarfest 09 more bad business...

[DOZER]

Bad business for us, good for them...

Can you say $$greed$$...

This will be my fourth year going. I am pissed about the way they are doing the tix this year. I wanted the cigar nut tix like I had last year but the only to get them this year is by auction which SUCKS! They were $140 last year. This year they will definitely go for more than that. With money being tight that is poor business. On top of that I don't want to take a chance and get out bid and not get tix so I will be getting the VIH tix this year. This is the second year in a row they did some stupid crap with selling the tix.

Wow most things prices are going down given the economy..weird

I am happy I had the chance to go in 07 before they started getting stupid. No interest in ever going to anything like that again. I enjoy the smaller venue's.

I'm glad I work the event. It really is a good one IMO.

I skip cigarfest, but go to Musicfest in Bethlehem in the summer. It's free, except for the beer, and CI has rollers on the streets in front of their downtown store.
I stay at the Hotel Bethlehem, and can be found in front of the hotel at the cafe tables smoking a cigar.

Musikfest is always fun, plenty of great food and lots of great scenery if you know what I mean. I usually get a close parking spot and keep a cooler in my car and just buy the mug and do my own refills
