Well I headed out to the show with my dad. Here's my review.
Selection of cards overall (variety):
I saw a variety of cards. Baseball, basketball, football. Everything from commons to some expensive AP, Reggie Bush, etc cards. As far as autographs, only a few dealers had autographs, but I did see some jerseys, helmets and balls.
Selection of Wax Boxes:
Saw a few dealers were selling boxes. Saw the normal Sage HIT High Series, Upper Deck, Press Pass. And I saw a few boxes of older series of above. And I did also see a few tables that had some baseball card boxes, but I was there for football so didn't pay much attention to other stuff.
Prices on Wax Boxes (better than at hobby stores, ebay, etc):
Prices were about normal I'd say. Maybe a bit cheaper then the local stores. I saw the Upper Deck, Press Pass, and Hit going between $85-$100 per box. Some dealers were a bit cheaper then others on boxes.
Prices on cards from the show (FULL BOOK, HALF BOOK, etc):
Well I didn't have a Beckett or anything, but the prices on cards were half of book value (at least the cards I got). I got a few 08 Rookies and the prices that I paid were about common with what they were going for online.
Do they have signers:
Yes, Mike Schmidt was signing autographs from 12-2.
Admission price to get in:
The actual show was free to get in. Mike Schmidt was signing for $75 (I think, so I could be wrong).
Overall Experience:
It was a good show for getting what I wanted. There were only about 10-12 dealer tables there, so it was not a big major show. It was the first card show that I have been to in a while.
Friendliness of the Dealers:
All of the dealers were very friendly. Since I had on a Michigan hat, I'd say most offered to pull out there Michigan stuff that they had for me to take a look at.
Well that's all. Not much to read, but I thought I'd just post up a little bit about the show today.

No problem Don. Figured I'd just throw up a little review here.
As to how I became a Michigan fan, it started with the fab five. then after that I just became a Michigan fan. now I'm more interested in following michigan football and collecting michigan football stuff!
