If I remember correctly, Adam doesn't show at Daytona - just attends - am I remembering correctly?
I believe Ralph drives with a convoy of friends.
Edit: I was posting the same time he did! Score!!! LOL

Thats what Ralph Davis does, he even had a cool trailer made that matches his truck. I think NERD drives down from New England as well, Most of the vendors drive to the shows. Heck John and I drove down from Jersey for the show last year, it wasn't too bad of a drive. Except that I did most of the driving as Jas drives like an old woman. He will try and tell you it was because we were driving my car, and he wasn't used to it, but in reality he drives like Miss Daisy. :P

Sooo...how does one keep that many snakes happy and healthy during the road trip and expo? Just sorta boggles my mind...

Not true. I'd still buy you a Corona! (After I gathered enough donations from here on the forum). :carouse:

Adam,
The next time I'm in Maryland for some crazy idea, I'll drop by with at least a six-pack of Corona just for you. ^_^

Re: Snakes on a Plane
Wow....Delta can accept reptiles and amphibians as air cargo (so bring a box to ship the snake home in) and you might be able to call it a gecko or something, I doubt they'd open the box.
Funny how you can ship live caiman, but not non-venomous snakes. Thats really not cool.

Unless you're a verified shipper, FAA requires that all cargo is visually inspected before being loaded on the plane.
