We left Orlando for Tampa at 10AM and arrived at Rodriguez & Menendez Cigar Factory & Store at noon. We arrived before the owners so Xavier decided to have himself a drink at a restaurant next door while we waited.


Following him inside I realized that the restaurant was probably a front for some sort of organized crime activity. There wasn't a patron in sight, just the bartender and his "business partner" at the bar.

Andy saved us from getting "wacked" by calling Xavier on his 3G iPhone, of which he has since upgraded, and informed us of the owners arrival. The interview went great and we took the guys to an awesome cigar bar afterwards, no doubt celebrating life in the honest slow lane.
