Default around 1993

some of the then major promoter tried the "regional" National concept. that did not work and frankly there should only be one National a year. The amound of work needed for two is not a doable concept plus very few if any of the corporates, and remember the cor[orates are more important than we are, would go to two in a year

Chicago is hardly what you would call the West. A national in California (San Diego , Los Angeles, etc) that would be a west show.

He said "West of Chicago". He did not say that Chicago was in the west.

Default AC?

AC is not a good idea.

Whatever money people bring to spend on cards, they waste the night before in the casinos.

Default I'm Selfish

Sorry guys, I am very selffish , but I love Chicago and Cleveland. I'm from Fort Wayne, Indiana which is smack dab right in the middle of both cities- about 3 1/2 hours away from each. So I love it when it is in both cities! I love Cleveland so much better because it is so much more affordable. Al Capone's family must still have interest in the concessions because the food and drink prices are outrageous in Chicago! Sorry, but the truth hurts. $25 to get in this year at the door is rediculous!

It would be nice if they considered the west coast every once in a while. They've had it in Anaheim a couple of times, why not there? They have the Angels and other good attractions. What about San Diego, San Jose or San Francisco?

Oh well, I guess I'll try for Cleveland next year...

Chi, Cleve, Chi, Cleve and on and on and on. The board picked the best possible sights. BS. The board should get their heads out of their a$$es and turn the show back into a REAL national, or give it up to someone who will. This same old same old is not getting any new collectors at all into the market. You dealers better get your brains working as the current shows will dry up for buyers.
