I'm a bit spoiled, since I have been running a booth  for a couple of friends' production company for the past 10 years or so.  I live in SD, so I have been going since 1998.  This year we don't have a booth, but I got lucky, since our booth moved locations and they want me to see how to set it up for next year, so they gave me a pass for this show.

It would be unfair for me to complain about all the things (PARTIES!) I am not going to get to do without having our booth this year
