+1

 

Wish I had stayed a little longer, as there seemed to be plenty of stuff to buy, but I was in a bit of a funk from being sick and my wife and I had some errands to run while in town. Crowd looked unusually strong for a November show, which should be a good indicator for February's 2-day event. Good luck guys....I wish you the best. Anything I can do to help, let me know.

Thanks to everyone for attending!

 

The convention was a success! We did have the last minute cancellations of Alex Saviuk and Cary Nord, which was disappointing for some attendees, but overall things went well. The attendance was strong, but did not break the previous show's record of 1,500, plus kids. We had about 1,100, plus kids this time around which is still a very strong turnout in my opinion. However, even with the slightly lower attendance, the exhibitors seemed to do very well. I asked almost all of the dealers how they did, and the worst I heard was, "I did okay". Apart from that response from a singular dealer, everyone else reported very positive results to me.

 

It was an exhausting show. I am constantly being summoned to quell some problem. I never get to stand around and chat. The drive back to Orlando last night was one of the most grueling drives ever--I had to stop at a rest stop and sleep.

 

I was worth it though! Next convention is March 3-4, 2012!
