For those of us NOT going to Daytona!

I would deff go to tinley if I could catch a bears game too!

I've never been to Tinley but I hear great things about it. Mike and I have never actually done a really big show so we're dying to get to it this year. I've often heard a lot of the bigger breeder/vendors there feel it's a bit more relaxing than Daytona.

Yeah, it was one of those things... I have family out there, so I can kill two birds with one stone.

Plus, I have a great group of friends I only get to see a couple times a year if that, so I have to make it out

Aw darn. See, there are no good shows around here. The Richmond show and the Manassas show. Daytona was my big show I was going to this year since I'd never been to a big show. I'm very tempted to get in the car, call in sick and head down there, but the fiance would be furious with me.

The Chantilly show is pretty cool.

It is much bigger than the Manassas show.

I'm excited about going to Chantilly this year. I thought we were going to go last year but we ended up deciding not to.

Jaybunny, another show that is bigger than the Manassas show and the Richmond show (which I haven't personally been to but heard it is about the same as Manassas) that might be close enough for you is the MARS show in the Baltimore area.

MARS, Sept 13-14

I'll be going to Tinley as well!

[Jay_Bunny]

Thanks for the info on those shows. I'm going to check my schedule and see if they've done the schedules that far. If not, my fiance and I are taking the weekend off for the MARS show.

I would say handle your herps but most of mine are in shed and the ones that aren't I don't feel like messing with
