So after reading all this, it seems quite possible that Mike was banned simply because someone
using his badge was caught stealing stuff.
As of right now, we don't even have evidence that he was even present at his booth,do we?
I don't see him in any of the photos.
My friends dad had his Yankee season tickets pulled after they gave the tickets to a neighbor and the guys were caught smoking pot and then fought with security and a cop.
You are responsible for what people who are your quests do, but not necessarily guilty of their misdeeds.
I haven't been friends with Mike for over thirty years, and we were more friendly than friends even then. We were in a trade organization together, had some common friends and partied together at Peter Parkers bachelor party.
He is a hustler, eccentric as hell,ultra high energy, can rub a lot of people the wrong way but he is also always been a man of his word and someone I trust.
I sincerely hope I'm not mistaken.
