    AWESOME. I only live 20 minutes from Chicago so I can easily drive home and come back the next day instead of getting a hotel.

    Do they give you a wristband or something since its 2 days long?

    Re: Tinley Park

    Well now I am pumped.... but this is so far away!

    The only "show" I have ever been to was the All Animal Expo in Wheaton Illinois and that is pretty small. It took a 1 hour and 30 minute drive to get there and me and my girlfriend were done looking in like 30 minutes

    So yeah I am pretty excited to go to a bigtime show.

    Guess I'll start saving up some cash to pickup a new BP

    How long do you guys think it will take to go through the entire Tinley Park show if you were actually looking at everything?

    Re: Tinley Park

    I love this, planning for an October event in April!!

    I REALLY hope I'll be around for the show this year. Not sure if/when we'll be moving . If I'm still near by I would love to meet up with everyone. Don't know if my hubby (jsmorphs1) will be here though.

    There are tons of great vendors and animals there. It takes me like 4 laps to decide what I want . And I've also learned never to go there with a specific animal in mind, lol. Last time I went looking for a female yellowbelly and came home with a male pied .

    Re: Tinley Park

    Tinley is about 3-4 times larger then the all animal expo. And the AAE has a lot of like...random stuff. Tinley doesn't have as much random stuff

    Re: Tinley Park

    I'm desperately hoping I'll be able to go! The last two years I thought I had a ride but they dropped out on the very day we were supposed to leave. If I go, I'm willing to do the nametag thing, haha.
    The only show I've been to is the Kalamazoo show (try every month for the last two years, haha). It's... tiny. Very very tiny.
