I wish I had one. Homes in Oklahoma don't have basements generally. We have a "smoke" room in our third bedroom though. It has a loveseat, coffee table and TV, where we retire once the boy goes to sleep.

I was just talking about "man rooms" with a couple coworkers today at lunch. Seems I'm the odd man out here -- no man room. I do have a quarter of the garage to myself, so long as I keep moving the wife's/child's crap out of it every few days. Does my office at work count?

I don't have a man cave as much as rule a fiefdom.

None here. The main tv rig is in the living room. Ever since we got a DVR, the wife uses that room more than I do. The closest thing to a Man Cave in our house is this:

Describe 'em if you got 'em. Mine: dedicated theater room two rows of seating popcorn machine projector 101" screen 7.1 speaker system (rarely used as 7.1) HD-DVD player Oppo DVD player PS3 Denon Receiver (need to upgrade) Direct TV In the process of building a media server My soon to be complete man cave will not likely feel much like a man cave - I placated my wife and said ok to her colors - but it will act like one. Setup will be similar to yours, Teed. 12' x 22' dedicated theater room. It will have: two rows of seating (either recliners or some modern sofas) popcorn machine (outside the room) projector (Panasonic, not sure yet whether I'll go 1080 - we'll wait for the final bill on the basement) 106" screen 7.1 speaker system with acoustical treatments done by bpape on AVS HD-DVD player - I wish (f'ing Blue Ray BS) Denon or Yamaha Receiver We'll see about a Wii or PS3... I met one of my neighbors on AVS. He's acted as a consultant on the project to my builder and has done the acoustical treatments and will be running the track for the fabric. When my wife heard his set-up, she was on board

Is this as close as we get to having wet bars in our man caves?

Obviously no man cave for me. No sewing/craft/art room here, either. My room pretty much suffices as my own little den. Sometimes, I'll work on a project in the living room, but usually I'm in my room.

I think you can imagine my disappointment when I opened this thread, the direction it is going in was not what I expected at all. No man cave for me.
