Never too early to make plans for the National

[atx840]

Just booked my flights, need to track down a hotel. This will be my first card show, quite stoked to see that much cardboard in one room. Also four days away from the kids

I've been reading up on the tips form lats year, comfy shoes and a backpack sound like the most important, as well bring cash and a list of cards you are looking for.

Is the VIP 1/2 hour early really worth it, I am not interested in autos or gift bags? I hear SneakAPeak is a good idea for those of us who like to scour for hidden oddities. Are there any ways to work the room for us Vintage and especially T206 focused collectors.

Im staying until Sat, which is likely way more time then Ill need but want to hit up the Net54 Diner. Appreciate the tips everyone has shared.
