Show Parking

How's the parking at the show? Is there parking on the street? Can a Chevy Tahoe fit in the parking garage? What's the fee?

Tight lines,
Eric

$10 for my van at the lot next to the show, i'd say the same for the Tahoe. $7 for a regular vehicle

Guys,

I just got back from the show manning the MSBA Booth. I thought it was the best of the large type shows i have seen in a long time. Yes there were filler booths and some empties, but that is how you put on the big shows in todays market. All in all it was smoothly run and a good job by the guys from RISAA.

I am the guy at the head of the MSBA show and the two are just different. I think RISAA did about as good a job putting on a large show as can be done in todays world. The MSBA show is more of a fishing event or gathering than a show. both have their own plus and minus points but hey, we can all attend both.

It was good seeing everyone all day. A friend from another part of my life ended up working a booth for a new charter boat and finally came to see me about 6pm. He was amazed that I seemed to be talking to people all day, but that is how many people I knew that went through. Definately a good time.

I parked in Providence Place mall walk across the sky bridge and through the westin to the show. Usually you have to validate the parking ticket to get a reduced rate. They still only charged me $1 for 3 hours.

I had a good time

I hung out with Habs and Tattoo, Point Jude Joe and Pete from the Saltwater Edge, I bought a cool print of off Crafty - at the Anglers Art booth....

Habs and Tattoo had two spokesmodels handing out flyers - they did not speak much nor they did not know anything about fishing. Nobody seemed to mind....More importantly, they looked like they did not know anything about fishing.....

Talking

Joe, I was hoping to get a chance to meet you at the show but I just missed you at the Habs/Tattoo both. The "TAT" t-shirt was pretty amusing. I looked for the angler's art booth and couldn't find it. I just bought a condo and need some decorations. I bought a print that I really like from Benjamin McCormick. I may need to place an order from Crafty. I finally scored a herring spook and lime over yellow habs 2 oz needle, I'm ready for spring now.
