Is this the same deal as last year free whiskey and cigars? Not that I would partake in any of that nonsense.

Guess I better shine the shoes, get out the tweed, stoke the pipe, and clean the bamboo rods.

But maybe they will realize my last name is gillespie, formed from gillie and they will take my rod and just make me guide(fetch fish for everyone), as they do with the gillies in the UK....

Are the going to be nice or are they going to be snobby at a convention as much as they are snobby and stand-offish as they are at their stores???

(excuse the rant, but I have had nothing but problems with every Orvis shop I have ever been in.They have never been anything but rude to me from MD to Utah etc... Well, there is one in Bozeman that actually treats its customers like human beings. Love their reels, hate their stores)

Where is this thing? This isn't the big truck sale deal is it? Just wondering.
