Anyone planning on going to this? It's still pretty far out, but I'm planning on going for a day.

Sounds like great fun; I hope you enjoy it. For my part, I'll have to pass, since my summer trip to Houston to see Craig Biggio's jersey retirement is going to be expensive enough. Happy collecting!

Gas just went to $4.10 a gallon here yesterday. My new summer vacation plan is a walk around the block If it gets any worse I'll have to steal my sons bike and ride it to work. Because I teach at his school, he'll have to ride on the handle bars! Please post about both those events guys so I can live vicariously through you. I'd love a trip to the National and seeing the number retirement ceremony sounds like a blast.

I plan on attending Thursday, more to look around, see hobby friends, etc. than buy anything...

Skyking,

Have you been to this before. I was wondering if it's worth traveling to?

Guys,

I am planning to be there Wednesday and Thursday. I also want to catch a ballgame (in town or nearby) on Wednesday night if anyone's interested.

Rick: I live in SE Michigan, and have attended over a dozen Nationals. It is the biggest event of the year and in my opinion is worth traveling to. I go whenever the event is in Cleveland or Chicago. It can take 2 days to pour thru everything. I also use the time to have dinner and hang out with friends I have known for many many years...

That's great to hear! I only live about 1.5 hours away so I'll have to mark it on my calender.

I won't be able to attend until Saturday. So the Wed night ballgame is a no go for me.

I think you will enjoy it. There has been less GU at this over the years. Much of what is seen is actually in upcoming auctions. By Saturday with the show having been open from Wed/Thurs on, alot will be sold. You'll still have a good time...
