Yes, it is called Sweated because it was heated in the Virginia sun for a year before being checked and found to have no mold after all. It was then aged in port barrels and pressed into half pound bricks of full leaf tobacco. The boxes will contain two bricks, sealed, for a pound total. This was a Cringle Flake, so Virginias once destined for McClelland and aged perique. It was fantastic before the barrels on the test pressing, it will be even better now. Last Sutliff release ever and Jeremy's farewell to the hobby. It will be priced way too low, too.
The Dutch are coming for you in the night... lol
For the people getting accommodations for the weekend. Are most staying at the holiday inn express on the outside of town? Doesn’t look like there are many options for lodging.
We’re staying at the Holiday Inn Express in south Franklin.
I'll be there, along with a crew from Louisville.
We've got an Air BnB close to downtown Columbia. Hoping it's within walking distance of Briarworks.
It's my first Muletown since the first year (was it 2019?)

I live nearby, but am unable to attend due to previous plans (garden season and then a friend is in town, so we'll be tying one on tight that evening). Parking can be a cluster at times, but there's plenty of street parking, including across the Duck River in the neighborhood. Essentially, anywhere there isn't a "No Parking" sign is fair game. Columbia cops don't play around anymore, so double check you're not parked in a loading or fire zone.
Incidentally, if you like beer, there is a great brewery 15 minutes south in Mt Pleasant called Twisted Copper. Great beers and seltzers and a fun atmosphere, although they are only open until 10 on Saturday. They do have Sunday hours.
Maybe we should implement name tags to differentiate between all the bearded guys smoking a pipe, wearing a fishing vest and fedora.
We need to do SoMeThInG. It is my first show and only the 2nd opportunity to meet anyone from the forum. I want to meet as many of you all as I can.
First show EVER?
I'd say it's a pretty good one to start with. Large enough for a good variety of tables, but still cozy.
I'd be stoked if Briarworks lounge was my local watering hole.
The weather forecast doesn't look especially grand, but we will survive.
I probably stick out more than many (tall, no beard). Despite the likely scowl on my puss, I'm happy to say hello to anyone from here.
Crap, I wish the OP had put "Pipe Show" in the title. I had no idea, and now I have already dedicated my time to something else. Would have loved to go, and it's only a couple of hours away.
Why did they put Muletown in the title? Sounds like a hillbilly something or other that I would avoid at all costs.

Columbia TN is the Mule Capital of the world. Change your plans @cosmicfolklore . Also it happens every year.
I will be checking yall all in. Giving wristbands etc. I'm super cool and handsome too so it will be easy to tell it's me.

That’s the name of the show and the category is Pipe Events, so the context was relatively clear.
