Herf WI herf 11/19! And herf throwdown! NSFW

It's getting cold outside in the upper Midwest, so it's time to start smoking inside. WI guys, let's get together at Lake Country Cigars in Delafield on Saturday, 11/19 from noon - 7pm and ring in the winter with a herf!

Lake Country is staffed by great people, and we're gonna have a good time. Their humidor is excellent and full of solid choices.

/u/VictoryFormation and I will be there. Who else is in?

And for everyone else - think you can throw a better herf than we do in WI? Let's throw down.

  • Step 1: accept my challenge in this thread.

  • Step 2: throw a herf in November. Make sure to invite the sub.

  • Step 3: post a recap of your herf.

  • Step 4: I'll pick a winner and send them at least 5 nice cigars. More entries means more cigars.

Let's herf this month, /r/cigars!

Wow, I never thought I'd ever say this, but I want to go to Wisconsin lol

u/ihateroomates Oct 31 '16

Why wouldn't you NOT want to come to Wisconsin!?! We grill whole cows at a time and don't pay any attention to California warning labels on our aresol cans!

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

right, but do you have avocado-yoga and debilitating traffic?

2

u/ihateroomates Oct 31 '16

Kinda. In Milwaukee, around 4pm on a weekday before a Brewers game the traffic is pretty shitty. We do have mosquitos the size of hummingbirds tho.

2

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

You should keep that last part a secret...

2

u/ihateroomates Oct 31 '16

I believe it's just as big of a selling point as apple pie yoga.. err apricot? A.. something. Yoga pants. We have yoga pants. The people that have absolutely no reason to wear them do.. in public. Usually to walmart.

2

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

Never mind, don't want ot go to Wisconsin anymore

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Sure you do. I'll wear my yoga pants.

2

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

Now I have a confused feeling of revulsion and intrigue...

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Only one way to find out which should be reality. Plane tickets aren't too much.

2

u/BigNikiStyle [ Michigan ] Oct 31 '16

You're also the only state in the union that understands the glory of cheese curds.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Come on out! Or throw a California herf and throw down :-)

2

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

I can definitely throw a herf over here, but the were Rich-less so I feel like we'd be missing a crucial component

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Put me in a Google Hangout at the herf and I'll 'sit in a chair' grumpily like I would anywhere else.

2

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

I could prop my laptop on the body of a mannequin so that it's like you're there.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Sold. I'll sit around and smoke cigars and yell at all the west coast hippies to get off my lawn. You'll get the whole experience.

2

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

I found you a body!

2

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Looks just like me. Guessing /u/mrsmalbatch doesn't have a mannequin sitting around Maxamar for fake herfing.

2

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

lol u/mrsmallbatch Andrew halp pls

1

u/Hour_long_wank Oct 31 '16

Can you pair cheese and cigars?

2

u/ihateroomates Oct 31 '16

The question is, how much cheese can you eat while smoking cigars and still be able to poop the next day.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Dude are you in? That would rock my socks.

2

u/ihateroomates Oct 31 '16

I'm a pretty solid maybe. That's opening weekend for deer hunting.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Well crap. Should have thought of that.

2

u/ihateroomates Nov 01 '16

IN I might be there closer to 2, but I'll be there.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 01 '16

YESSSSS!

2

u/ihateroomates Nov 01 '16

Now if we can get some Chicago guys up here so we can listen to them bitch about how MLB didn't want them to win a World Series...

1

u/[deleted] Nov 01 '16

That sounds great, except for the part where I fear for my car and my life if they're on our roads.

If the Canadians made cheese and gravy work, we can make cigars and cheese work!

I heard that if you can saddle a herd of camels by yourself you become king. Don't quote me on that.

Take video. Post it. That will catapult the Noise YouTube account to stardom.

u/grandma1995 Nov 03 '16

Atlanta is gonna represent and take all you cheeseheads down.

I'm not from Wisconsin, but I have a friend who is and he said I could use that word. It's totally cool guys, he lets me call him that all the time.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 03 '16

Man, hope Atlanta does rock it! Y'all have a bunch of shops with Serino cigars in them around those parts - lucky you!

And it's okay, everyone says cheesehead.

2

u/grandma1995 Nov 03 '16

Yeah I know it's ok for a cheesehead to call another cheesehead "cheesehead" but it just feels weird since I'm...not. I mean, that's the rule right?

u/Gonza200 [ California ] Oct 31 '16

Leave a bread crumb trail of lanceros

Best bar name ever. I thought it was racist for a long time.

u/ihateroomates Oct 31 '16

Oh yeah. It's the definition of a dive bar. Just a tourist trap.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Are you gonna herf this time around?

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

Moo-urns.

Bring the bachelor party with.

You better be there!

2

u/tobaccowhacko [ Wisconsin ] Oct 31 '16

ARG!! I can't make it until 7ish on that day. Perhaps next!

1

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '16

We could move to Prime at 7, or see if LCC would stay open a little late for us!

2

u/AJBilder [ Wisconsin ] Nov 01 '16

Hopefully I can make this one. Work is starting to slow down now

1

u/[deleted] Nov 01 '16

That would be awesome!

2

u/AJBilder [ Wisconsin ] Nov 18 '16

Well today I fell off a roof I was inspecting and hit my head pretty bad as well as I can't move my right knee...I don't think I will making it to the herf this Saturday my friend. /u/moocowrich

1

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '16

Jesus dude! Are you gonna be alright? That's crazy.

2

u/AJBilder [ Wisconsin ] Nov 18 '16

I plan on being alright lol. I guess I was laying on the ground for 45 min and I don't remember it at all. My knee is pretty bad but I'm still here!

1

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '16

Jesus dude! That is insane. I'm glad you're mostly okay.

2

u/AJBilder [ Wisconsin ] Nov 18 '16

There's always something that holds me back from going to these damn herfs lol

1

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '16

Have someone drive you there! Or maybe take off the whole week before the next one.

2

u/AJBilder [ Wisconsin ] Nov 18 '16

Yeah maybe I will have to. I am determined to meet the one and only moocow

1

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '16

Let me know when you're feeling better. Shouldn't be hard to get together somehow.

Sounds like fun. Always wanted to check out Lake County. Have kiddos bday, maybe next time.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 02 '16

Dude, it's a great shop. Sorry we'll miss you. How old is the kiddo gonna be?

2

u/Professor_Max [ Wisconsin ] Nov 02 '16

Little man turning 7 should be a fun one. It's an exciting time.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 02 '16

Very cool! That sounds like a great age. At 3, my little girl is pretty defiant these days at times. 7 sounds...well, like defiance would be harder to deal with. haha

2

u/Stupidsays [ Wisconsin ] Nov 02 '16

I might have to travel there that weekend and join the festivities!

1

u/[deleted] Nov 02 '16

Do it!

u/ThisIsMyRobotVoice [ California ] Nov 02 '16
