Welcome home old friend

[mu mike]

The long sordid details:

I bought the original Aristocrat end table back in 1999. In 2001, I outgrew the end table and bought an M-Plus. I gave the end table to the best man in my wedding. In 2004, we moved back to my wife's hometown and didn't have the right space for the M-Plus, so I traded with the same friend and got back my end table and he took the M-Plus. About a year ago I got rid of everything, including the end table, for family reasons. Fun stuff.

Well, a lot has happenend since then and last fall I started to slowly get back into cigars ("slowly" being relative LOL). About a month ago the same friend said he was getting rid of all of his cigars and the cabinet. Coincidences, coincidences.

Here are a few pictures of my game room and new (old) humi. The contents of the humi are still a work in process.

Holy sh!t, you packed that thing up that full, with THOSE smokes in a month?

ROFLMAO

Welcome back with a vengeance!

What kind of table is that? Is that a 7'?

Love the cigars & billiards table. Decent looking house cues, too.

Nice ashtray!



When's the "Welcome Home HERF"?

Nope, it's an 8 foot Brunswick. I'm still trying to hit up the in-laws for new cues; these Brunswick ones work fine in the interim.

Wow, that is a very nice room, and not a bad collection of smokes either :whistling:

Side note and slight thread jack here:

Anyone ever play set of five 9 ball for a premium 5er?

Lots of fun. Used to do it all the time when the pool hall here was open.

Edit: Very nice table, Mike. Also like the "surface of the sun" triple lighting fixture.

Nah, it took me a couple of months. When I got back into this I went from a small desktop, to a wine cabinet/humidor top, to a locker at the local B&M, to this.

Normal, right? :laugh:

My father-in-law is an awesome pool player. They own a pool hall as well and I've learned to stay very clear of that place unless I want to lose lots o' money. LOL

Nice set up all around. Welcome back to the hobby!

 

[Bxcigrfan]

[H311oLHD]

Wow VERY VERY nice Mike! I'm jealous!!

 

[Bsneed51]

Well, I guess I know where I will be stopping the next time I venture to the southern half of the state.

That can be arranged, you just have to promise to bring your golf clubs and let me supply all the cigars and booze.

Man, looks like I need to make it back down to Springfield ASAP! Nice setup Mike :thumbs:

 

[AVB]

Good size room to fit an 8' table in it so you don't hit the walls with the sticks. I'm jealous.

The guest bedroom downstairs is always available, just say the word!

Honestly, most of it was given to us by my in-laws as a housewarming gift (they own a billiards store). I am a pretty lucky SOB - my wife's great and the in-laws and I get along wonderfully. Her dad even smokes a cigar with me once a year or so!
