That is great news!

The closest is Lehigh Valley International Airport. You may find Lehigh Valley to be pricey though as I don't think they have very many (if any) discount carriers through there. So you might also try Philadelphia International Airport or you might even try Newark Liberty International Airport, since it is not much further then Philadelphia International.

You will need to rent a car if you coming in to PHL or Newark Liberty. If you come in to Lehigh Valley, you will be very close to the host hotel, the Hilton Garden Inn, and you can get a hotel shuttle from the airport to the hotel. You'll likely be able to find a ride over to the Merchants Square Mall with someone from the Hilton as many people going to the show stay there. If you stay at one of the other hotels, you'll likely find a ride as well but there's not quite as many people that stay at those.

Good news Barrett! I look forward to meeting you at last!

Hammer, if you're going to be at Memorabilia, I'll try to bring back a Red Robin onion ring for you...
Au Res.,

Thanks AWR. It is corrected now. This is what you get for starting out with last show's post and not thoroughly checking it.

See you at the meeting on October 23rd.

Cool...Will be great to see you Tom.

And that reminds me. Tomorrow is the last day to sign-up for our Card Talk gathering. We've had nearly 50 people sign up and add in the manufacturers and artists and we'll have a packed house. But we've still got some room so if you haven't signed up, do so by tomorrow night at Midnight.

Thanks.

The only problem with Tom attending is that he takes up space and breathes our air.

(I'm redeeming my one-free dig. Tom & I will now be on equal footing at the show. Bring it on, Tom! Welcome back!) Smile

I don't see mention anywhere, but I'm hoping there will be some sort of video broadcast of the Card talk breakfast as there has been in the recent past for those of us that cannot attend?

Hi Otim:

I haven't posted anything yet and you are the first person to ask. Rather then a Ustream session, I think we are going to record the session and put it up on YouTube which you should be able to watch either right on YouTube or via the forum and blog. It will not be up for a few days after the show.

Sorry you guys were unable to make the show.

Harris

Had an enjoyable time at the gathering. I have been going to the show for a few years now and this was the first time I went to the gathering.

P.S. My son really wanted those Benchwarmer cards!

Was he the one that got that Eureka box instead?
