As an east coaster, I'd love to have a National in California in LA or SF or Anaheim area. Would be great to see games out there at the same time.
How could Vegas not work? Whole freakin' world has conventions in Vegas. I used to work at a large international firm that has annual partner conference. I realize from speaking to people involved in the process that these things are a lot more complex that many people (including myself) imagine. Many of you know from business travel that it's frequently cheaper to get a ticket to NY or Chicago than it is to get to Pittsburgh, St. Louis or Iowa City. If airline tickets are prohibitively high that could really cut into attendance. Last edited by Snapolit1; 05-05-2022 at 09:52 AM. |

I keep pining for Orlando, Fl. Admitedly, I live in South Florida so am probably prejudiced, but it could easily attract collectors from the S/E as well as TX and OK. It is a hub and the amenities abound, that is if our governor hasn't put out hit contracts on Mickey, Goofy and Donald.
Chicago and Cleveland are too close in proximity, hardly serving a national collector base, while AC is a cess pool, crime, drugs and hookers and logistically tough to reach unless you are driving. I know Mike wished to draw a cross section of the population by trying to move it around, e,g, Atlanta and wish the present Committee would have a more open mind about the next go round. |

Arizona...
Call it cardpocalypse and hold it at the burning man site in the black rock desert. All flea market style. Table discounts for yellowed toploaders. Bonus discounts if they have dust in them that goes back to the Reagan administration. |

My favorite locations for the NSCC based on being able to attend or deal and have things within walking distance have been Chicago/Rosemont St. Louis Baltimore Anaheim San Francisco back in 1987 was not bad on that level

Las Vegas seems to be a viable option, they're in the business of hosting conventions. SF is just a sh*t hole now.

Be prepared to spend all your savings on hotel rooms and nothing at the event. Cali is a terrible option IMO. Some will disagree, but for the masses there are better options.

Definitely no crime, drugs or hookers in South Florida. No sir. Clean as a whistle.

Tampa in February. "The Winter National" Works for me. I will arrange a Net 54 event at the Mons Venus club.

A Winter National in Tampa or even Orlando would be fine with me. I'm sure that I could find some time to go in between rounds.

Chicago is the perfect location. Easy access to hotel, airport, food, entertainment etc.
It should be there annually. Also, Baltimore will never happen again. |

The NHRA might have a problem with that name.
