Any members in the Rocky Mountain states ever been?

It would be a bit of a logistical nightmare for me since I no longer drive, but would love to check out something of this nature for the first time.

Thanks

I have never been, but intrigued. It is but a mere 7 hour drive across state.

The omni looks gorgeous, but pretty pricey.

Waiting for them to post ticket prices so I can compare to Big Smoke in las Vegas which would logistically be WAY easier, but ticket prices are pretty crazy. Airfare is the same as Denver though.

They hadn't posted prices last time i looked just a few days ago.

Lots of affordable options. Will have to look into what you get for the different ticket prices.

Sent from my iPad using TapatalkYeah, was just looking at that. The General Admission and VIP tickets both seem pretty good for the price.

The $165 general admission would be fine with me and is affordable

I friggin' LOVE cigarsNeed to check on other cheaper hotels in the area, and how far from Denver airport it is so I can figure out how to get there.

Cant believe airfare is still $450 this far in advance, for a short commuter flight, and with much less travel due to covid. Would have assumed prices had gone down considerably

Big Smoke in Vegas is my ultimate dream event, and is much simpler logistically since i don't drive, but tickets are crazy expensive, plus $450 airfare, plus hotel, so would take a long time of saving and not buying any cigars.

Honestly not sure it would be worth the money and will likely attend some of the smaller events around the country.

Need to look up where there are other festivals to attend. Only vaguely know of one in the Gullf states area somewhere and that's it.

Anyone know of any others to look into? Especially ones you have attended and would reccomend

Just checked and its only 35 minutes from the airport, so there may be a shuttle or at least a cab willing to make the drive

We did estes park and Denver this past summer. Denver has a light rail system that may be an option just don't forget to keep track of times on the trains. Uber or lyft is probably better option than cabs. I think their cabs only did airport runs.

Had totally forgotten about them as I only hung out in the lounge in Virginia at the airport once waiting for the duty driver to get me to check in at my new command.

Looked everything up on Expedia and the total with tickets would be $487 for me.

Kinda pricey, but the flight is the majority of it. Still way cheaper than Big Smoke in Vegas


Would only have to not buy anything for 1 month, then only a two thirds regular order max and I would have enough, so definitely doable

Not ideal travel but you check bus tickets? Takes longer but your not driving
