On one hand, I enjoyed the show and was able to spend four solid days shopping for cards, finishing a few sets, and making progress on several others. The finishing line for my 1956 Topps set of white/grey backs is within sight, once I grit my teeth and buy a second Mantle.
On the other, you could hear many people coughing and gritting out subpar health for the sake of the significant money that changes hands. Had to cut my own show short after testing positive for COVID on Saturday and wish I'd been 100% masked starting Wednesday. Best wishes to anyone recovering from the show in both senses of the word.
