Hello all. I've been hanging around here for a few weeks now and thought I would say hi. I was wondering if any of you are from the Tampa area and if so where do you go locally to get cigars......everywhere I've tried around here is so expensive. I'm a newbie to this whole cigar thing so I'm still feeling my way around........and yes I have to admit I got a little carried away on my first few auctions and probably over paid but hey you live and learn right. I should have come to the boards first but I learned my lesson and now I do my homework before I bid. I enjoy reading the posts and have learned quite a bit from you guys already......thanks and again.....hello.
Oh and by the way....you can add me to the list that loves Bucaneros......first time I had one I thought I had died and gone to heaven! There is nothing like firing up a Bucanero and watching my Bucs!!!!!

fsunole58 --- great to have you join us ... but make sure you review the 'Forum Rules & Conditions', just to give you an idea of how things 'flow' on these forums ...

... and if you are looking for recommendations for local tobacconists ... it's best to include your email addy, so folks can contact you with the information you are seeking. Although that particular one isn't explicitly spelled out, it is considered to be in 'bad taste' to post business competition on our hosts retail site ...

Disguise your email address though ... Like 'someone(at)somewhere(dot)com' ... or something equally clever, so the 'SPAM-BOT' dosen't get you ...

Oh yeah...what Slim said. Got caught up with the more the merrier thingy. Yeah, what he said. See the Pic Forum and look for "Slimboli, Lord of Discipline", let that image serve as a reminder as to who will be creeping into your window at night if you persist to post on the wrong board. Seeing as how you're new...you get a pass...Because this is a cigar board...Do you like the Full Sails or El Capitan's?

The last msg was for Slim...

FSU, I hope you can too!...Oh yeah, does anyone else here like the new CAO Maduro? I've heard that they're the same blend as the old old CAO. Seems they let Perdomo make them, and well...they're back to making them!

Hope you can make it Thursday to Ybor. I am really looking forward to it. If I am guessing right we might be able to have a little fun talking college ball.
