Thank goodness I missed the National. I was going to go leaving where I do yesterday, but I have a friend who lives below me who was sick and the idea of a severe thunderstorm around 5:00 p.m. today Chicago time with either sleet or hale (forgot which) deterred me. Poor air conditioning in the joint would have been unacceptable.

It is widely joked/talked about how hobbyists are known to be hygiene challenged. Add to that a packed floor and insufficient AC and now I am certain I am not missing anything. Nothing I cannot live without if I have to endure that.

And kudos to the National committee who just phones it in year after year. If it ain't broke (for them) then why fix it? The industry deserves better. New venues and proof of daily showers and deodorant to those in attendance would be nice changes.

Will be interesting to see the production difference in a Fanatics show.
