Default Living Here in Dallas area

I'd be a BIG Fan of the National coming here ---

The only places I think can handle the size of the show is Market Hall or the Dallas Convention Center

However; we're not a big card area for collectors -- we have maybe one to two passable shows a year -- and the show's infrastructure is similar to what Cleveland's would be -- and that is a downer.

Regards
Rich

I liked the Baltimore area...Northern Virginia (Dulles Conv) could hold some good opportunities...non-union, close to cheap air, MLB, access to major markets.

If I never go to another Atlantic City National, it will be too soon.

San Diego is a great idea. The convention center is downtown near the ballpark and lot of restaurants. No east coast humidity. Lots for families to do like the beach, Sea World, the Zoo, etc..

San Diego or Vegas would make great non-hobby related destinations, and San Diego's ample sized convention center is right there next to Petco Park and the Gaslamp area. Don't know anything about the going rates at either place though...

Default Cali?

You guys voting for California destinations do know it used to be there in the past right? Do you know why it's not anymore? It was a colossal failure. Small crowds and dealers from the east refuse to haul their stuff 3000 miles across country. Not being mean or anything, but history has proven it doesn't work there. Sorry!

Actually, I think the best attended show in history was in Anaheim.
