Alan
In 1997; they had the All-star game Fan Fest, a venue which needs a lot of room in Downtown Cleveland. The funniest thing about that was that I (we) stayed out of town and drove in each day -- where for the National I'd want to stay within a walk or cab distance. But there is a venue downtown that can handle the National

If I have to choose from this list, I'll take the closest one to my backyard (SF). Actually, I would've voted for "anywhere but Cleveland, again" if that was offered.
It ends up not mattering, really. I'm heading to my 9th straight next summer. Bill Last edited by bcornell; 12-08-2010 at 10:07 PM. Reason: old age made me forget that I started in 2003...

Site for the National
I know that a relatively small proportion of collectors live in the south, but, living in Alabama, the last shows I attended were the 92 and 98 shows in Atlanta. However, there are better locations down here, one being New Orleans (great facilities and who's gonna beat the night life). Also centrally located would be Memphis (best barbeque and blues) and St. Louis. For those of us on limited travel budgets, sites within reasonable driving distances would really help.

doesn't matter at all to me
Unless it's in my backyard in Dallas I don't really care where it's held. Once I get on a plane I am going to wherever it takes me. I get to the destination and then do the show. Site seeing is for families (to me) and I don't have mine with me. Most of the sites I see are in whatever hotel bar is closest to the show. The show could be in the Mojave Desert or Rhode Island.....makes no difference. See ya'll when we get there!!

That is definitely a selling point for Chicago.
And for VEGAS, BABY!
