Cigar Event: Smoklahoma 2019
Introduction to Smoklahoma 2019
Smoklahoma 2019 takes place on April 27th, 2019 in Oklahoma City, OK. The event is presented by ZT Cigars, a local cigar shop. Smokey Butts, Papa Butts, and I attended the event in 2017. The event was a fantastic regional event with great food and drinks, a new venue, premium cigars, and most importantly a unique opportunity to meet cigar manufacturers and mingle with fellow cigar lovers. A portion of the proceeds of Smoklahoma 2019 go to Fields & Futures. Fields & Futures is a nonprofit organization with a mission to help “Oklahoma City Public Schools put more students on a better path to graduation by growing sports participation at the middle school and high school levels.”
