There are a few though that I won't even go into anymore because the staff or selection is so pathetic.

...there are a couple on my list of "places to avoid". One of them is out of the way for me anyway, but there is a very young guy that runs the place and is a bit "thugish" for me. It's a fairly new place that my parents told me about when I was visiting them a while ago. I went there with my father to check it out and this guy would NOT get the hint that we wanted to be left alone.

It seemed that no matter what cigar I was contemplating about he had some sort of story about how he's so awesome that he's the only one in the area who can get them. I was debating on telling him that I could get them online for about half the price, but I held my tongue.

Anyway...that's a place that I would go to to meet up and smoke outside on their patio, but I wouldn't be able to hang inside with the manager because my patience would wear thin pretty quickly.
