My toxic trait, thinks I could drop the $500 or $650 for the entry level tables and over three days make some money.

OMG! Far cry from the old days when Marco would let you take extra tables for free, extra passes for your buddies, configure your setup for tons of space, etc. Supply and demand, I guess. Total cost would be around $225 for early payment. Great show then, great show now, just different. Hobby has changed a lot, and shows with it.

Did anyone see photos of Tyson who was there signing autos? For some reason, he decided to go shirtless while meeting folks and signing.

I usually find nothing that interests me at that show as I do not collect the major 4 sports. This was the first time I went to that show and paid for autographs. I got a 1976 Olympic gold medal match ticket signed by Sugar Ray Leonard and a 1988 Olympic gold medal match ticket signed by Lennox Lewis which was already signed by Roy Jones, Jr. As Ray was signing the ticket there was this person standing there saying he wanted a photo of the ticket and I was saying to myself 'My property you cannot have a photo'. After it was signed he asked if he could take a picture of it so I said 'Ten bucks!'. It was only then that they explained that he worked for Ray. I guess there is a photo of Ray and ugly me holding the ticket on his social media. I don't do so-meds so I am not sure. Ray recognized me from the Boxing Hall of Fame as I had given him a photo he had never seen before of him with 4 other Maryland Olympians after the 1976 games.

Marco was a great guy. I just wish the new crew would bring in some baseball guests. I understand that football is king, but reruns of Cowboys and Steelers grows tiresome.
