I was in the Traverse City area this past week and stopped into a cigar bar called Nolan's. It was a nice place. I walked in and sat down at the bar, packed a pipe, and started to smoke as I waited for the bartender to take my drink order. The bartender came over and told me that I was not allowed to smoke my pipe because they were a cigar only bar based on licensing. I obliged her and put out my pipe, bought and enjoyed a cigar, had a drink and left.
I let the bartender know before leaving that Bill Taylor was laughing from above because I was not permitted to smoke my Dunhill lovat in an Ashton sponsored bar. Oh yeah, I failed to mention that the entire bar was sponsored by Ashton. Additionally, I was told that my 2000 FVF was not expensive enough to smoke inside the bar. I wasn't allowed to light my own cigar either, and on top of it had to hold back as a guy at the bar called me a dumbass in front of everyone because I said that pipe tobacco did not need to be kept in a humidor.
