2015 Aberdeen and Findlay shows -SAME DAYS!

[Small Prepper]

NUMBERS I looked at the EAST COAST RALLY this morning (vender space selection printable map) and took a count of spaces being rented and not rented yet, looks like 626 total spaces, 479 rented, and 147 not rented. (Math Might be alittle off) Between now and May 14 looks like some more spaces should be rented. I was planning on going to Findley, but thing come up.

What I am seeing it don't look like that bad of a show. Thoughts?

Does anybody know what last years numbers look like??

Just heard that "Brad the Dog Tag and Ice Cream Man" will not be at either show. He's doing well but has been asked to work something special for awhile and won't make it. That stinks for everyone cause there won't be any decent ice cream and I won't get my annual FIX.

 

[ollied]

He was not there last year (ecr)

 

[Sephirothq]

carnac are you going to the aberdeen show?

 

[CARNAC]

Nope. Findlay. I'm taking over Brad's spaces at Findlay.

I am PO'd they put it to the same weekend and it will result in a loss for me. Person that thought this was a smart idea should be stuffed into a foot locker and buried someplace.

Military Vehicle Magazine Ad said there were a handful of spots left... So who knows what to believe, other than past history, and that doesn't bode well..

Dang Ollie, Tell it like it is! But................................................ I saw this post way back when this thread started, Post #9, You wouldn't know who it was would you?

"I am a member of the wac bg have not mjssed a erc since 91, will going to finley 2015 .Back when i was treaser for 15 years) we had a agreement to not have our show on the same weekend as Finley , the wac bg does not care about venders or other clubs . I am done"

We all come back to reality sooner or later. I have been going to this show since it's inception, what, 30 some years ago? I will continue to go at least as a day trip for years after this. I will be retired this time next year and would like to do Findlay, Just to see what all the hoopla is about. depends on the money situation.

In years past there would be two or three threads going with many posts. I am mainly going this year just to sell off what I have and socialize.

Findlay is where its at! I've found a lot of cool/rare stuff at that show and its only a 2 hour drive from me! Hope to see some of you there!

What are you trying to say? Posting numerous typos or partial words or shortened "texting" speech doesn't exactly help your case.

If you have to read something three or four times it has little or no effect. I understand your frustration but please take the time to post it correctly. That helps everyone.

I have gone to both and really enjoy them. Findlay is more profitable for me and I get so many good parts there, that is the show I have settled on. We like to see more different folks show up so we "cheer-lead" but not to insult other shows.

Thanks to Dan for hauling a set of HMMWV doors to me at Aberdeen on Thurs, then dropping off ammo cans at Findlay then back to NC, what was that 2000 miles? You are one tough!
