One evening, over a few beers, a couple of guys fantasized about their perfect store. If such a place existed, it would have the aura of an old-fashioned, tin-ceilinged, wood-paneled men's club. It's shelves would be stocked with the merchandise of a modern-day men's toy store, filled with watches, pocket knives, outdoor gear and humidors. It would have movies starring Bruce Willis and books by Ernest Hemingway. Being firefighters, the men decided that their store would be filled with old leather fire helmets and antique firefighting implements. Being cigars smokers, the men also decided that they would stock their favorite cigars. Being married, they first checked with their wives, who decided that it would be wise to carry men's grooming products.

Thus was Cigars & Fire Trucks born.
