Very few out of state exhibitors set up anymore, due to cost and impractical nature of flying with valuables these days. Complicating that is the high costs in San Francisco from lodging to gas to parking to food. Speaking of food, most attendees needed 2-3 times the normal servings of food this weekend due to Hemp Con next door, and the associated aromas. As mentioned earlier, it is primarily an autograph show. They get a crowd of 2500-3000 (estimate) but more than 75% of the attendees are there for signatures only. I enjoyed seeing more than 100 regulars over the weekend, including a few Net54 guys. Some good conversations and came home with a lot less material..
