Wed Night at The Chicago Show

[admin]

Here's a few photos from Wednesday night in the smoking tent.

Collectors Bill Kotyk & John Seiler

Stacen with his Uncle Arthur Pipe

Craig Watness from the Seattle Pipe Club entertains the crowd

Vernon Vig, President of both the New York Pipe Club, and The United Pipe Clubs of America

I love those smoke filled pictures!

My Dunhill Shell, Lawrence Ebony Tamper, Jack Daniels on the rocks (that Stancen bought me), and non-pretentious Bic lighter.

Damn, that brings back memories of last year. Wish that I would have been able to make it this year .

Those are great pictures and looks like a pretty decent start to the show. Sometime in the future, I definitely would like to make it to a few shows.

Great to see our own Vernon Vig there, though in fairness I should point out that Lou Carbone is now our NY Pipe Club President, gracefully picking up the reins from Vernon after his tenure. Man I wish I was there!

Ah, thanks Romeowood. I didn't know that had changed.

We should start something in the UK Jules. Though getting round the smoking ban would be interesting.

Looks nice! Glad you guys are having fun! I hope to make it to a pipe show someday.
