36th National Sports Collector Convention in Chicago 2015 (who is going)?

[doniceage]

if anyone wants to set up at the Nationals and share a booth with some fellow SCF'ers feel free to drop me a pm.

I figured I post a thread to see who will be going with a few questions.

Are you going for 1 days or 4 days?

What your purpose in attending (auto guest, bust some cases, meet certain friends, see a
certain dealer, catch a ball game, etc)?

What the best pick up you ever had at a previous National?

If you will be attending post here and I will create a list of SCf members contemplating going. Members then can see who will probably be attending as the event approaches. Always nice to meet members from the SCF Community. Feel free to drop a pm to folks that might be attending to help in locating things at the show, sending a note on a table with great deals, sharing a hotel room, going to a baseball game, etc.


SCF will be set up at Booth 301.

Here the floor map if you wish to stop by the SCF booth:

I was wondering when you were going to post this thread.

@70's, you could always move out east and you could enjoy all of our cold and snow.

Cursed when it comes to the National
Lucky as all heck when it comes to weather
I don't know how you East coast guys do it.

Why not fly in one year. A ton of folks do it that do not live within driving distance. Had a SCF'er from Australia fly in for the show. So it can be done.

Had a member pm when I was going to put it up. As they wanted to work with some members who might be interested in doing some 50/50 with the Vip signers etc.

You going with anybody or going by yourself.

Have any cards your looking for?

Be prepared to be overwhelmed as the place is just a show floor of more stuff than you can truly imagine until you been there especially with it being your first time.

How many days are you attending?

I'm going with a good friend, my sister, and her fiance. They are all novice collectors, and it will be the first time for everyone.

I'm not really sure what my game plan is yet. I'm kind of interested in visiting the autograph pavillion. I'm sure I will buy a couples boxes while I'm there, and I'll probably pick up a nice Kobe or two for a souvenier! Overall, I'm just looking forward to the first time experience.
