That would be a possibility, but frankly, I had to look up the show now that you mentioned it. I know I'm no longer in the mainstream of collecting, but I would think for it to compete with a "national" show, one would start with better advertising.

Agreed. I had not heard of it either until a couple of weeks ago from someone attending the Industry Summit. I'm assuming it's fairly new (the card show portion) so maybe they will advertise more in the future. Vegas would be a great place to go to a card show, sit by the pool, gamble a little and maybe even see a Raider game (if it's that time of year).
