Re: Anybody attending the Seattle Cigar Expo?
 

Considering the Hempfest has been going for over 10 years now, I would assume that the SCF event organizers should probably make a mental note for next year.

They get 50,000 folks on saturday alone. To try and run a competing event in Seattle will do nothing but piss off your ticket holders due to stinky hippies, bad traffic, no vacancies in hotels, yada yada.

On a side note, no Pete Johnson? I thought he was the guy that was sponsoring this event? Sorry Petey, I'm done with your brands now. Yah, they are yummy, but I don't pay douchbags.

hahaha, are you serious? You ever been to Hempfest? The people that go there have no interest in cigars unless it's flavored blunt wraps or phillies. Plus those 50k of people are mostly stupid stoners under 21 hat just go to socialize and not care about anything but smoking weed. Only competition there is traffic, in which, there's always traffic in Seattle.

And way to jump to conclusions about Pete Johnson. He was already booked for another event before the Seattle Cigar Expo crew could get him. He still supplied cigars to the VIP people that signed up for it. Don't blame him because every other shop are booking him for their own events as well.

This event has been cancelled. I just got the email. Bummer....

Did they say why? Just wondering if it was due to the smoking rules in Seattle...
