2015 National Sports Collector's Convention Thread ... Who's in ? Are you going ?

[AmishDave]

The Cubs play the Rockies the 27th-29th and then go on a road trip, the White Soxs are at home playing the Yankess 31st-2nd.

So maybe a couple games ! Really wanna watch the Sox, as, when I was a youth, they were easily my favorite team, without a doubt.

You in for every day or would you wanna take in a Cubbies or Sox game, depending on who's playing at home ? I may crash there, if allowed (plus, it'd mean a cooler full of Zup's meats for ya ! ). Then you, Sam & myself could cause havoc ...

Cubs are in Milwaukee and the Yankees are at The Cell.

This is on 8/1.

Not sure if I can go all of just 1 or 2 days

Sounds like a place I need to check out then lol

Yep it will be a 6 star place for sure

Never been to SF, but always heard it was extra expensive. Not a good thing when you are trying to draw customers in from around the Country. I suppose it is a possibility though. Notice I even left my own neighborhood out. Washington is a great place for sure.

I've been to the Cell and Wrigley, Rich.

 

[Hawk8]

Watched the Royals at the Cell last year and the Cardinals, Marlins, and Mets at Wrigley last year

Rich, Dave, I'm basically a go for this.

Okay then we can figure on being together some time thru this. And you 2 can stay with me at my place sometime thru it as well. I really think we should make it to Milwaukee for the game there over the weekend if possible. We can stay over there for a night as well maybe. I have friends up there or we can crash at Josh's house :lol:

There's a strong possibility of me going to the Chicago National this year. I have a good buddy that moved from Columbus to become a Chicago police officer and I need to pay him a visit.

 

[Hawk8]

Sounds like we already have a good group planning to go

 

[Pinbreaker]

I can't believe that there are people actually complaining that a coast isn't getting these shows.

Come on people, let the flyover states have SOMETHING!

What is the schedule for future Nationals?
2015 - Donald E Stephens Convention Center Rosemont IL
2016 - Atlantic City Convention Center - Atlantic City NJ
2017 - Donald E Stephens Convention Center - Rosemont IL
2018 - International Exposition (I-X) Center - Cleveland, OH
2019 - Donald E Stephens Convention Center Rosemont IL

It would be nice to have it at least once on the west coast every 5 years vs having it in Rosemont every other year..

LOTS of politics involved with were it goes. Thats why Baltimore was dropped

Baltimore wouldn't book more then 2 years in advance I think.

That's just dumb if you ask me but conventions are big business

I wish Indianapolis would get in on the National. Went a few years ago in Chicago, but only spent $5.00. The drive and admittance cost more.

 

[Hawk8]

Bring the National to New Orleans!
