Interesting that JP Sports and CSA combine forces. I wonder if Tri-Star will remain in the picture.

Good read. Lots of info. Thanks!

Thank goodness. Hopefully they completely do away with the committee....

Can we get Dallas along with Chicago and Cleveland now? Maybe an occasional Las Vegas.

Or maybe Anaheim....LA or San Diego ?

San Diego or Vegas.

With all of the new management involved in East Coast shows, I think the possibility of a future West Coast National just dropped to "zip."

(was going to say 1 in a million, but then someone would have had to say "so, you're saying there's a chance?" )

Maybe they'll want to go someplace different once in a while. Someone in Juneau doesn't want to holiday in Anchorage every year.

They do if they have to haul their card cases/inventory via sled-dogs. Can't "mush" your way to Seattle.

Could be good as they stated they would be looking at new locations but I also threw up in my mouth a little when the new President of the NSCC said in the article…

“I’m here to represent the dealers and what’s best for the dealers. But at the same time, we need to embrace corporate, because the world’s changing, it’s booming. There’s NFTs, there’s apps, there’s all types of things. But I think the thing we need to do is embrace corporate.”

Not sure if this means dealer space will be lowered for more corporate stuff which I really hope wouldn’t be the case

That's exactly what's happening I believe.

+1 Agree but it is an interesting read

I realize two trips is probably a lot for many dealers, and if they ain’t at both, then it would mean two trips for collectors to see it all, but why isn’t there two nationals: this nation is too big for only one, especially with interest up. Is there money in running a convention? It seems like someone could do this. Especially if it was in Las Vegas. It probably wouldn’t be too difficult to overtake the current National as the primary one that everyone went to. Free idea.

Well, nobody has mentioned the "F" word in the room... Maybe Fanatics will have a larger exposure???

You beat me to it. I was going to post "Welcome to the National Sports Collectors Convention presented by Fanatics". It wouldn't surprise me in the least.
