Perhaps, it was rather tight fitting in there. I'm pretty gangly looking and was wearing a black hat, geeky glasses and at times a blue sweater.
Yup, I think you and I were at the Alan Cole booth at the same time. If I remember correctly, you were talking to Brian. You mentioned coming to the show to get normals, and buying everything but. Said you had just gotten into pythons a few months ago (congrats!) and were an active member on these forums. Brian was pulling out that pretty, reduced pattern girl right as I was walking away. Sound familiar? Small world!

HAHA yep that was me. Good memory!! Brian was extremely polite. The Normal I got from him was pretty nice and reduced but pales in comparison to the one that I picked up a few minutes before that. I really scored big I think at the expo. You might have saw my awesome mistake then if you were there as he pulled out that normal. There was a batch of Vanillas right next to the Normals and I pointed to one of them thinking it was a Normal LOL Silly hatchlings all look bright and shiny. Very small world, that's awesome. I really did just get into reptiles and ball pythons recently and have hit the ground running especially for being chronically broke lol

By the way I love Butters and sadly don't own one yet. I'd like to see a picture of the Pastel Butter you picked up.

Re: First expo
Haha, I think I would have made that same mistake! Alan gave me "a look" for asking about a Fire I thought seemed particularly bright.
I don't have many pictures of my girl yet - letting her get settled in before I start the photo shoot. But here's a hasty photo I snagged at the expo: http://i.imgur.com/fFCI8PF.jpg
The Tropical Hut owns a stunningly yellow male Butter Pastel. Everything sired by him at that expo was particularly bright and colorful. Her siblings (Kingpin, Butter Pin, and Butter Pastel Pin) were also eye-catching. And like I mentioned earlier, I found their prices to be very reasonable for the quality of animals they were producing!
