Last night, I went to a comedy club that I've frequented many times. I always smoke cigars when I'm there.

I lit a Torano Exodus '59 Gold just before I walked in, like thirty minutes before the show began. I got a beer, and was enjoying the stick when my bud and his wife joined us. He lit a Royal Jamaican, and we sat and chatted for about ten minutes.

Then the waitress came by, and asked us to put them out. Apparently the "hypnotist" the Raven, who was performing that night, didn't allow cigar smoking at his show. My bud went up and talked to the manger, who he knew, and the guy confirmed this.

I finally put it out, but was I pissed off! It really turned me off to this guy (who was pretty lame, btw).

I'd been looking forward to the Torano all day. Ok, enough whining, but I hate that kind of crap.
