I have only been to The Humidor, which is downtown, 6th and Main, and Teds Pipe Shop which in in Utica Square and 51st and Sheridan.
I will have to lookup Fogues and Bates and give them a try.
The main shop I go to in Tulsa is Fogues and Bates. Its not the biggest shop in the world but they keep a good selection and they are very friendly and helpful.
I'm in Park hills Mo. I grew up in Farmington Mo. lived there my whole life till I went in the Marines, it is there that I learned what a good cigar tastes like, believe it or not it was in the far east, Okinawa Japan where I had the best cigar I've ever had and I don't even know what it was. I bought it in a bar called The Cannon club. Sure would like to know what it was now though.
There IS a good rib joint in Joplin. It is "Lumpy's" on East Broadway (Langston Hughes Blvd.) The place you were thinking of years back with all the oyster shells in the front yard was Gladys' Old Heidelberg Inn. Gladys died about ten years ago. She was a real character -- a sweetheart! The building was torn down later, and it is now a used car lot run by a black man, "Cat" Johnson. Johnson is a short guy, and one of the best basketball players Joplin H S ever had. Regard, D.Patrick

I've never had Lumpy's. I have had the all you can eat at Big R's. That's the only BBQ I've had in town. I will definitely have to try them sometime soon!
