Just realized I have a hobby record!

Never been to one. So far the negatives have outweighed the positives for me. I imagine that the difficult dealers/overpriced cards are getting more attention than the reasonable ones. All those T206 Cobbs in the one case looked fairly priced. Hard to put a positive light on the entrance/parking fees. The Net54 event sounded very interesting (especially the FBI guy). I have enjoyed reading all the posts regarding the show.

I might make Cleveland my first next year. Still on the fence...

I haven't been to one yet but it is definitely on the bucket list, even if I can't afford to purchase anything.

My thinking is, and it's likely already been discussed in this thread, is where else can you see, and possibly hold, some of the most desirable cards and memorabilia in the hobby.

I know I'd likely be salivating at almost every table I attend, and to me, that would be more than worth the price of admission.
