We are excited to announce that with the 10 year anniversary of the Mesquite Amateur we will be having another year of Cigars Under the Stars. Cigars Under the Stars will take place on Wednesday May 30th poolside at the CasaBlanca Resort after the Dinner Party (about 8pm). Cigars are limited so please post your name on this thread to RSVP and Rich can collect names of attendees. We will have a cash bar available to serve drinks to compliment these great cigars!
Thanks Dave

Thank you Rich C. for a fine cigar and get-together.
See you next year.
Christian, I want to thank you on advance for all you do for us all and your support for the Cigars Under the Stars 4th year.
Sorry that should have been Marv
You got it Marc. All packed in the truck except the cigars and Grand Prize Humidor. Time for a Scotch n’s cigar out on the front porch
Rich,
I will look forward to Wednesday night. Sorry to hear about Vince L. but I will enjoy his cigar. 🙂
Jim, Thanks for the up-date, so the numbers will stay the same with marv M. taking the vacated spot. All is well. See you all in a few. Rubber to the road tomorrow AM, cigars and prizes in hand (or in my truck). I should get a Highway patrol Escort (-:
Rich Vince L. from vegas is a medical scratch that should leave you with one extra….he tried till the last minute to make it but bad vertabraes have sidelined him. I will still be there
Jim O
As posted Marv M., the cut-off was the 15th and the order was placed. I should have a spare but you might want to buy one at the gift shop to be sure. Plenty of adult beverages to go around at the cash bar though. See you all soon. Rich
Count me in for cigars and stars.
A good friend of the cigar industry Stinky, will be letting us use several of his ash trays during our event. Retail for these are $37.50. After the end of our party, they will be for sale used (you dump the ashes) for twenty bucks! Wait till you see them, very beautiful and functional. I had him send me an assortment (royal blue, pure white, jet black, chocolate brown, fire engine red, and his original stainless. They will be available after the prize raffle and me finishing my cigar n’ Scotch. I will have some of his business cards if anyone wants to contact him. Check out his web-site at StinkyCigar.com
Thanks, Rich
We stand at 72 and the order was finalized yesterday for our cigars. 2 weeks until the 4th Annual Cigars Under the Stars and only 12 days until the Mesquite Am!!!
That should have read “also”
The Cigars Under the Stars sign up is clossed to finalize the stick count. Anyone can bring they’re own of course. The cash bar should have some for sale Aldo. If not, the gift shop does. Looking forward to seeing you all!

Don’t have a study, but it would look great in the man cave. Oh, that would be the House.

At 57 as of today. I finalize my order on May 15th at 1000hrs. Spread the word.
This year’s raffle will be a doozey: various cutters, ashtrays, a Savoy tube flask, and a Lincoln Memorial Humidor! Google the humidor and you’ll be amazed (-:
Count me in for cigar night
Count me in for Cigars under the Stars.
I would love to be included. This is my first year at this tournament and I’m really looking forward to it.
Christian, any local dignitaries? Golf pros, Mayor, Council members, casino execs, etc… dog catchers? Final count by the 15th. Also a friendly reminder to secure vast and nice amounts of Scotches!
Rich,
As of right now no on the local dignitaries. I will try again to come down and say hello. I have put the request in for different scotch’s and whiskey’s. Looking forward to it.
You’re in Jeff. We’re at 54 as of this morning. Spread the word (-:
Been away from the desert since ’09. Count me in if still room
Rich C.
Thank you again I can taste that cigar and the single malt scotch now!
What is the head count at this point?
Confirmed: European Issue Vega Fina Robustos. Medium strength and very well made! The cut-off for the sign-up is May 15th for the haed count.
Gotcha in the mix Kevin. A good Single Malt Scotch makes any cigar better. I think I might know what cigars we’re getting because Altadis is really pushing the revamp of an old time favorite. It’s currently being rated in the major cigar magazines etc… so I kinda suspect. Stay tuned (-:
Kevin, not sure what we are getting this year, but they are always great cigars from Altadis.
Count me in. First time attending and can’t refuse a good or bad cigar.
I invited Stinky and he said he will be up and may bring some of the famous Stinky HERF ash trays. So add one more..
Pushing the “50” mark. Help get the word out with your Fellow Lovers of the Leaf.
Peach, I was starting to wonder where you were!!! (-: Welcome again to you and your Brothers of the Leaf (Dan K. Robert C. and Roy P.)
Rich,
As per usual, I would like to attend with Dan Kinkle, Robert Coley and Roy Pierson. Hope they have plenty of single malt scotch to go with those great cigars you bring.
42 !!!
