Best show yet. Once we figured out the line for load in, all seemed to go pretty smooth. We stayed across the street because of the free wi-fi and parking. Plus, being as my wife is one of those handicapped, overweight people, we usually just take the van to a H/C parking spot nearest the door, or if not available, I drop her off. Last year it was quite a hump to the show from the rooms and it appeared to be the same this year? But I guess from what some are saying it wasn't that bad at all. Plus, bfast and happy hour? We're there next year.
Can anyone say why we could only load out the back door? Would have been much faster and easier if we could have got out the side or front. And negotiating a machine at the transition from the door ramp to the sidewalk was a li'l tricky. Other than that, everyone was super polite to each other and helpful as could be.
I did not bring the Acrylic Pinball Machine to the show unfinished for exactly the reason that I felt more would have been disappointed than excited to see it unplayable.
