I believe it was a knock off of Garland, Texas but am not positive. If you have ever been to Garland (as I have been about a million times) you will know what I mean. The King of the Hill crew are definitely Garland population candidates if they aren't from there in the first place.
Be careful about driving too far for this Allen Show. To set expectations correctly this is a
very small show. It probably has 10 tables or so...Now, that being said I have set up there, have been to several of the shows, and hope to do the same again. I should be going to this one coming up.It's easy to go up there and spend a few hours or more just talking cards. It's a good group of guys and there are usually a few guys that come to the show just to shoot the crap. I believe I have bought a thing or two also. It's only about 15 minutes from my house so it's an easy jaunt. Collecting in person is better than through a keyboard, for me, so it's well worth it. Hope to see whomever can make it, up there.
