Alan,
I bet you walked around at more shows than Mitch and I set up at? We set up at over 1,000 shows between 1976 and 2010; over 300 of them were shows we ran in Bayside, NY; Riverside, CT; and Manhattan, NY. But I now just set up at the National every year and I have done 40 of them. Last year I counted priorities to set up at the National and there were only 22 dealers (on record) left with a higher priority than me. Stop by and say hello as always -- Booth 800 only 8 booths in the main entrance. My wife wants me to stop doing the National too, but as long as I keep making money and I maintain my health, I will continue to set up. See you in July. Steve_NY |
