If you're in Chicago

[sack]

Stick around. Just last week the temperatures were in the 50's, this weekend the temps are just above 0 degrees and with the wind chill tonight will be at -30 degrees F. It's tough to smoke a cigar right now, can't even go to the neighborhood bar. Come on spring!

I'm in Chicago right now. Currently sitting in an office building waiting on a friend to finish up some work. I can see Sears tower from here.

The no smoking sucks, but I'm in no shape to be smoking, unfortunetly. I scratched my eye on a tree branch walking around after I got here. I just has laser surgery a week ago, too. So my trip has already had an emergency room visit and a checkup with the doctor and red scratchy eyes. This sucks.

I'll say that the cold weather almost sucks more, though. Damn it's cold.

Any good cigar shops downtown that allow smoking? I don't even know where I'm at... I know my budy lives around Lawrence and Broadway. Right now we're at his office that's near where 90 and 290 cross.

Stay warm!

I90 and 43 here and it just turned 0*F. I was considering going out and turning the heat on in the motor home but decided to wait until tomorrow and then watch some football and smoke. :thumbs:

Utopia Cigar at 6355 W Montrose has smoking but not the greatest atmosphere. Cigar King in Skokie has nice big chairs and large screen TV and a Pool table so that would be my choice. Don't know the weekend hours though.

I started off this morning in Madison at 4am where it was -12 and finally got home at 2pm in Tucson where it was a cool 65. Needless to say, I'm glad to be home.

You can check out Blue Havana on Belmont and Clark decent overpriced selection But you can smoke in their little lounge.. About 10 min Southwest of Lawrence and Broadway.

It was below 40 degrees here this morning. (NOTE: that is not -40) :whistling:

It'll be back in the upper 60s this week.

In that neighborhood if a guy talks to you about smoking a cigar sometimes a cigar is not a cigar.

Not that there's anything wrong with that!

Thanks for the phone call Sack and all of the info, guys. My eye prevented any smoking until the drive home, but I'll be back in town to visit again!
