    too early to tell.

    I will support the one that offers the most to the customers/attendee.

    Plenty of time to decide (it is even too early to buy plane tickets if you needed to fly in). I will likely wait till June time frame and see what is on the schedule for each show.

    Quoted from GAP:

    Labor day is the last warm extended vacation, might fly somewhere. Late Aug, early Sept kids are back in school, gotta keep them on track. Plus all of Sept is a good prep time to get everything ready for Expo. Expo is a lot of work. To me mid Sept is not good!!!!!!
    Plus the Pinball Season really starts flowing in Oct. People getting ready for the Holidays.
    Just my observation

    No chance of snow in Sept which is a big plus, and typically nicer weather.

    That said, I think they should put them on the same weekend as each other. I mean, why split and then dance around the competition with each. Go head to head and 1 show will come out on top after the first year or 2.

    Splitting them by a month seems silly.
