Welcome to ASC's first trade show exhibit - The International Cigar Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada! This promises to be a major event for cybersmokers, so check this page often for schedules and updates...
The International Cigar Expo is a trade show, and (unfortunately) not open to the general public, so you'll have to enjoy it vicariously through a group of lucky ASCers who will be in attendance. We'll be posting regular event updates, pictures, and hosti ng live online interviews via real-audio from right there on the exhibit floor! This will be ASC's first live interactive event, and all cybersmokers are invited. Stop by and visit us at booth 906.

"Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!!!!" Oops! With apologies to Bogie, we do need badges,, and unless you've already signed up, it'll cost you! Registration at the door is $125... If you pre-registered through ASC, you can pick your badges up at the ICE registration desk at Caesar's Palace anytime Monday through Wednesday. If you missed the ASC sign-up, you'll need to register independently by calling (702) 893-9090.

Rules? Well, just a few... Read about "Moochin' at the ICE" before you check in...

The ICE is a new trade show that caterers to the booming retail cigar market, and will feature over 150 tobacco industry booths. The exhibitors will be on leading edge of the cigar market with new cigars, humidors, and accessories. A sample of the exhibitors include: Caribean Cigar Co., Cuban Cigar Factory, El Tigre Cigar Co., Fuji Publishing Group, Havana Sunrise, Indian Tabac Co., Key West Havana Cigar Co., La Diva, Napa Cigar Co., Oliva Tobacco, Oliveros Cigars, Smoke Magazine, Cigar Monthly, Traveldor, Torano Cigars, and Alt.Smokers.Cigars! This is an "industry only" trade show, and is not open to the general public, so this is a wonderful opportunity for ASCers.

Real-Audio Interviews:
The ASC booth (#906), is a real sight to behold. It will be entirely wood paneled and feature its own link to the Internet and the newsgroup. We will be using the booth to interview industry insiders utilizing digital video to archive all the scoop for those ASCers unable to join us in Vegas. In addition to interviews, we will be using the booth to promote oursleves as cigar consumers and to share our insights with the cigar industry. Of course the main purpose of the booth is to provide ground zero for all ASCers to share a smoke and a few stories.

Listen to pre-recorded interviews of cigar industry leaders and ASC regulars on our new Real Audio web page! All interviews will be conducted live from the floor of the trade show from our own exhibit at booth #906. Co-hosted by Internet personalities Steve Saka and Neil Ross.
