3 REASONS EVERYONE ATTENDING INFLUENCE SHOULD JOIN!
THE VERY BEST NETWORKING
Cigar PEG is the only place at Influence where top speakers and emerging talents get to rub shoulders together in a relaxed and social atmosphere.
You never know who you’re going to meet!
THE VERY BEST VALUE
Go ahead and drink at the hotel bar if you want. But it’s gonna cost you big time. At Cigar PEG you pay once and enjoy unlimited premium adult beverages in our (smoke-free) private suite EVERY NIGHT of the convention!
PLUS you get to come to the EXCLUSIVE OFFSITE Cigar PEG Party!
THE VERY BEST COMMUNITY
When you join Cigar PEG you are joining a community of professionals who are also great friends. Cigar PEG members actively work to help each other throughout the year.
So be our friend!
DON’T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT. LISTEN TO THE PROS!

AND NOW A MESSAGE FROM DALE!
“The way I look at it, you can give money to a worthy charity, or; you can give money to a worthy charity and have the time of your life doing it.
Since I prefer the latter, I have been a part of the CIGAR PEG since 2000 when I presented my first uncensored summary of the convention. Since then I have been an active participant every year and would encourage everybody to participate with me.
You are probably wondering what kind of genius it takes to develop the concept of a party with a purpose and turn it into the Cigar PEG. Well, wonder no more because Ed Rigsbee is the man behind the curtain. Ed combined the two things he is most passionate about, helping others and partying, into one organization and it is truly a success.”

The primary annual fundraising event for the Cigar PEG is its annual party and celebrity auction. The party offers a nightclub atmosphere including cabaret and adult humor. While all are invited to join, the Cigar PEG might not be for everybody…especially the easily offended. The Cigar PEG is a community of professional speakers and others that appreciate the camaraderie, relationships, and connection that the community provides.
