    I'm going to swing by Saturday for awhile with more freebies to give out. If I can find the NRA booth I'll leave some there if you don't see me.
    Unless something drastically changes we'll be near the exit on the south side of the pavilion. I'll be there later this AM after the traditional pre-show breakfast (hat tip to the Mouse, it's not at Charlie Brown's in Speedway but it's a tradition.)

    HMOG!! Enter the fairgrounds off of Fall Creek Parkway… The main entrance into the fairgrounds is a complete disaster… There is some kind of gift and hobby show going on and some other things going on as well. Wow that was a mess.

    I may break my rule of not paying $30 to go to a gun show and walk around.

    This is great news about the gift/hobby show. I can get Mrs. Miguel pay for parking now.

    KellyinAvon LIVE from the 1500 gun and blade show. THE BIG STORY!! it looks like the politicians may be out in force. I’m looking at the Silent Suzanne Crouch for governor booth, next to the roasted nuts and chocolate people.

    I saw Brad AKA @Bradsknives at the Revolver Tactical booth with the big bomb on the sign. He is towards the back and down the middle from the main entrance.

    @paintball_addiction it is on the south side of the pavilion, along the firewall. I am trying to convince him that him, and @AmmoManAaron do you look similar, at least to me.

    Time to wander and see what all is here, maybe find a few price points.

    10 minutes until the door opens, the line runs south from the entrance around the corner of the building, and there’s probably another hundred feet going west along the south side of the building. That’s a pretty long line.

    Jimmy Farrar sighting. Saw a guy leave with a dolly, had six cases of ammo on it plus his backpack looked pretty heavy. Impressive!

    I live pretty close and always wanted to walk through a real gun show....the stuff I'm used to back home on the East Coast was utter garbage. I'll be there tomorrow.

    We were muzzle swept, by an 03 Springfield, with an old scope, that was slung over the shoulder.

    Just a heads up, there are a lot of trade shows going on at the fair grounds this weekend. It is packed, and Saturday will likely be very crowded. I will be bouncing back and forth between a few of them, including the 1500 tomorrow morning.
