Default Allegheny Sport Show

Did anyone go to the Allegheny Sport show in Pittsburgh?

It was a very big disappointment as far as I'm concerned. Very small, maybe the smallest ever.It has really gone downhill these last few years.
Besides being small, I really don't travel 35 miles, put up with the city traffic and pay 10 bucks to park just to see half the show (thats small already) wasted on Sham WOW,window salesmen, jewelry vendors, basement waterproofers, gutter helmet etc etc etc.[:'(]

I did score a bargain or two though... from the store just upthe road from me! They had some great closeout stuffbut I could've gone there in 10 minutes and not wasted a whole day.

I didn't bother to stop in even though I walk by the convention center everyday.
I had just got back from the Harrisburg show, so anything after that was going to be a let down.

I quit going to those things a couple years ago now.
Although I regret not coming up and meeting you guys that one time.
I just don'tsense that atmospherelike it used to be. Seems too overtaken by unrelated vendors. I guess I've lost that lovin' feeling.

Ryan...you don't work near Harmar anymore or what??
