I took a friend to the Allentown show this morning. He had never been there before, I haven't been for a while myself. I was impressed with the amount of people. My friend and I arrived at nine AM, and there were many walking out with packages already. ...
I had an early-admission 8AM ticket, which I paid EIGHT dollars for at breakfast 'cause Chuck was low on singles. At least that's what he told me. 
Next time he buys something from me on the forum, I'll need to charge him an extra dollar! 
Seriously though... I made a trip out to my car around 9AM and the line of folks purchasing tickets to get into the show was unbelievable -- extended out to the cross-walk for the main Fairgrounds building... then made a sharp turn along the parking entrance avenue out to where cars park in the fairgrounds infield area! 
That's alotta people in line. And it was windy and brisk at that hour too.
I had to leave the show early around 10AM due to some last-minute work commitments that came up during the week, and by then the aisles were packed with peeps. Glad to see the ATMA show still draws a good crowd.
