For the amount of time they had, I thought they did a wonderful job. Part of the problem with not letting people use the bathroom early was probably due to the fact that they were all upstairs, and I am sure that the stadium would have been facing a liability issue had they let anyone in early. CMS was there as I bought 2 Fluke rods from them and Mike P bought a custom 1209, so there was room for 10' rods to be displayed. Was the show perfect? Probably not, but it felt alot warmer, more comfortable than years passed. One thing people seemed to complain about was the fact that the ticket price was higher, what they do not take into consideration is the venue is more exspensive, and the vendors paid more without complaining.
Oh well you can please some of the people all of the time, and all of the people none of the time.
