WOW
 

MSBA...

EXCELLENT time meeting each and every one of you. There are some serious first class people out there. I THOROUGHLY enjoyed talking fishing with everyone, and glad everyone liked the plug porn for this year. If you didn't get a chance to get to the show then by all means you got to see it at RISAA in a few weeks.

WHAT more can be said. FANTASTIC job by not only Basic Patrick, but EVERY single volunteer that helped out at that show.
EXTREMELY well run. Easy in and Easy out....Every single one of you gets my applause for a job well done!!! :claps::claps::claps::claps:

I guess there was a bunch of grumbling on some other sites and some were unhappy. Only thing I got to fault is #1 the lack of any decent beer in the place, #2 the price of a Budweiser at $7.50 kept me drinking $4 watered down soda and using the ice on my hand all weekend. Gillette guys are rapists is all I can say. $55 for lunch for 4 people today in the booth. You guys should be shot in the parking lot for that.

Shame about the snow. Caused alot of no shows. They did a great job of filling in, IMO. Flow of people was excellent, and allowed you to talk to individual people. A few times today the booth was across the entire aisle, and 6-8 people deep, sorry if you were late for a seminar :hee:

Bluefishercat you are a class act dood. Rockport, Lurch, man there was sooooo many guys I can't even remember them all. It was a blast!

Special commendations to the guys that helped out in the booth this weekend. Eliott you did the whole weekend and helped me not only in but out. :claps::claps: This was the fastest I have ever seen a Sunday go EVER in that show in 5 years!

Paging Basic Patrick...dood thanks again for the great billboard space :hidin: :lm:

Highlight and best funny of the weekend...I'm standing there talking to a bunch of guys in the booth Saturday afternoon, we're talking about the Fathead poppers and the guys are all wishing they had been able to get some. So out comes the blem bin and I start hunting through there...out comes an olive blem, then another olive blem, I'm passing them to the guys as they come out. One says "how bout a white one" I keep looking and find a white one, the guy is psyched. One more guy there that didnt have one, I'm pawing through the whole bin, NOT ONE LEFT. I comment on this and one guy that got one said to the other, "hey you can have mine"...so one of the other guys says how much we owe you...I say NOTHING it's on the house. Guy starts screaming GIMME IT BACK I THOUGHT I HAD TO PAY FOR IT :D 5 guys razzing him so loud I bet you could have heard them on the other side of the stadium :D He gave it away fair and square :usd:

I made a few peoples day and that was pisser funny :cheers:

Cheers everyone hope you enjoy the lures and see you guys in a few weeks!
