And my Ty "Corn" Cobb card.

Leon it WAS much bigger. The main room was slightly bigger (the tables one could use to eat at were all removed and I think slightly more of the main room was used

The biggest difference was the show "ended" where the Tri-Star Autographs began in 2019. This year what Tri-Star used as their prep room was moved upstairs and the signing area was changed to be even deeper in the adjacent area

And yes where the show previously ended had a whole bunch of new tables, new corporates and new etc. So it was bigger by IIRC a 50 percent multiplier and Leon is absolutely correct in his supposition more space was used
