If this is the one in Wilmington, MA, I'll be there. It'd be an honor to meet some members who could share some stories with the younger generation.

Hey guys, the past few years we have been having a Net54 meetup on Saturday at noon at the show. I'm up for it again if other folks are! We'll typically meet in the food area by the bar, in the room where the autograph signings take place.

Roll call - who's in??

I couldn't find anything about dealers, but here's the list of autograph signers.

Is the shriners show worth going to? Is there any memorabilia, like bats, jerseys, etc or just cards.

Great show! Who will be doing onsite grading this year? By the way, where will everyone be meeting?

PSA and SGC are both usually onsite; PSA has offered onsite grading in the past, but not always - I haven't checked their website to see if they are just offering dropoff services or onsite grading as well this year.

For those looking to meet up, we have usually met in the back of the autograph room (by the bar) at noon on Saturday. Wazoo, just look for a few goofy-looking guys standing by the bar, and you will have found us! I will probably have on a T-shirt that looks like Ed Cicotte's jersey on his E95 card.

SGC didn't do it back in 2010, the last time I attended. Is onsite grading more expensive? Thanks and I'll see everyone Saturday.

I had a ride from an awesome Net54 guy, b ut the storm has disrupted his power and such, and haven't heard, so I can't go, seems. My car isn't up to that trip, plus funds.

Interesting to see if any NY/NJ dealers can't make it. Can someone take pictures etc, and I look forward to hearing reports on the show as well

Hi-
I will be there at some point today and Saturday for the meetup as well. I am hoping for more folks than last year!
Brock, this show is the best show in New England. It is also more than double the size of White Plains and typically has a good selection of memorabilia. I have bought a couple of 19th century bats, photos, and other odd memorabilia at past shows. I hope you can make it.
