The national.hot as hell. Call it like you see it.

I see a lot of folks complain about the ac national with valid reasons. That said I enjoy all the nationals wherever they are. AC my favorite because it’s a home game for me. That said most members love the Chicago national the best.

Well it’s been hot as fuck the last 3 times the national has been there. It’s a disgrace millions of dollars changing hands, but they can’t get the AC to work properly..

End rant

That venue is a dump. Never understood the love for it.

It was definitely hot as two rats #uckin’ in a wool sock. While everyone seemed to smell like microwaved excrement, the dealers have been wonderfully personable this year and even a bit flexible with pricing. I’m sure that was the case for a number of you depending on what you were buying, but the mid 50s Dodger cards were quite affordable.

I was set up near the bay doors in 2021. Thursday was unbearably hot -- but I can attest to it being from the doors being open. When I would walk to the other side of the room it was noticeably cooler. Friday through Sunday the AC had no issue.

That's one thing Vegas knows how to do, convention space, AC, parking, off site entertainment and food, plenty of good inexpensive rooms, what's not to like?

I had a few dealers tell me the air conditioning did not get turned on until 2 pm Wednesday. It was off while the bay doors were open. It is stupid hot outside and the system can’t seem to catch up. The lobby area and the hallway where the one VIP is set up are comfortable to cool

Nice. The usual bad body odor smells x 4.

My last National setup was in Chicago in 21. I did about 20 Nationals, but I never noticed any of them being hot. I did more in Chicago and Cleveland, but a couple in Baltimore and one in Atlantic City. I can tell you from a dealer's standpoint that Chicago is the best of all of them, but all of them were quite lucrative.
