The Vegas Show in January is the ONLY show I go to now days.
Why? Becasue its Vegas.

Truthfully shows dont have enough of a draw to get me to come. Sales Reps, sponsors at shows, booths with models just doesnt do it.

I come because its Vegas. And because people who I already do biz with are there and we can all enjoy Vegas together.

Other shows Im Being the odd man out (as someone who actually makes money) and watching sales reps party with other sales reps at shows isnt my idea of fun. But at least in Vegas there is an escape to do other things than be stuck in a show. The draw that is Vegas is what imo keeps this show alive.

But if some of my friends like the Movie Post Dinner guys, or AFF, or some of the people who year after year take me out to dinners stop coming I will too.

Vegas is just a great setting for a show. Id be sad to see it go.
These other shows just dont have the draw for me to make an effort to go.
