Heading to Minneapolis

Black Coral · 12-06-2012, 07:30 AM

I am heading to Minneapolis for the month of December.

If brothers in the area let me know.

What are the best B&M and where to go!

Mattso3000 · 12-06-2012, 07:50 AM

It's December...why oh why would you leave Orlando for Minneapolis?

Burn in Burnsville is a good spot, Tobacco Grove in Maple Grove is nice, Stogies on Grand is okay. Others have spoken highly of Goodfellas in Mahtomedi but I've never been.

Family visit and christmas with family.

I agree I will miss the Florida sunshine, but also hope to get some snowmobiling and play time up north.

I will be in St. Louis Park so all the above are a help.

If anyone has time in the area I will be up for a smoke!

I would be up for a smoke! I'm in Western Wisconsin, but get to the cities quite often.

BSB · 12-06-2012, 11:15 AM

Tobacco Grove is an excellent place to smoke. But you prolly want to bring some of your own, MN tobacco tax is obscene

mahtofire14 · 12-06-2012, 04:12 PM

Yeah taxes here are awful however the B&M's mentioned here are very good. Let us know when you are heading to one of the shops and we can get a herf going! As for the snowmobiling I'm sad to say I'm not sure we are going to have snow by xmas. Has been very mild this Winter.

Fri, Sat, and Sun look like snow is in the forecast. Although, Wed. is looking like it might get up to a balmy 36...

REALLY looking forward to a ton of snow. The MXZ 800 is dying to get out there and tear sh*t up. Handlebar risers, and a new exhaust are installed and ready to rip.

mahtofire14 · 12-07-2012, 09:55 AM

Only .5 inches from what I heard. Pektel, for your sake (and mine, I want to snowboard, it's Dec for God's sake) I hope we get some soon, but the way the past couple winters have been I'm starting to lose hope!

Gophernut · 12-06-2012, 10:42 PM

There is also a nice B&M just across the river in Hudson. St Croix Cigars and the taxes are much better.

How crazy. An old school member posts a thread, and a TON of old school members I've never even seen post pop up. That's awesome to know how many lurkers we have on here :-)

I think you just need to pay a little more attention

I agree! I haven't seen a post by anyone that doesn't post almost daily.

mahtofire14 · 12-07-2012, 08:26 AM

I think I re read this thread four times trying to figure out who was the "lurker"....

Me too...maybe I need to stop actually reading stuff and start making random posts to make sure people notice me more.

Black Coral · 12-08-2012, 05:53 PM

Well I arrived in Minnesota and have been aclimatizing to the weather from Florida.

I figure by monday when all go back to work I will start the venture out.

Probably head towards burnsville Monday if anyone up for a smoke.

irratebass · 12-09-2012, 09:09 AM

Have a great time John.

Ogre · 12-09-2012, 01:29 PM

Hey John, it's a sunny 80 degree day here.

Mattso3000 · 12-09-2012, 01:32 PM

If it's afternoon I can probably meet for a cigar tomorrow if you decide to head to Burnsville.

BSB · 12-09-2012, 02:04 PM
