Is it really worth spending $168/night at the Super 8 vs. $94/night at the Knights Inn? Trying to figure out where to bring the Gas Can???? Where are the fun people staying? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Please tell me the gas can is coming@ |

I'm staying at Americas Best Value Inn $99. Palmyra PA. 6 miles/15 minutes to the park. My wife always reads the reviews and books my trips. I previously stayed at cocoa inn but their reviews have gone way down. I'm not one of the fun people, I just like a decent room and a good night sleep. I am booked there too, but got my room a little cheaper. See you soon. Shoe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Looks like I will miss this one. Conflicting plans.
The Knights Inn didn't bother me, Some of the places I've stayed when on hunting trips would make the Bates Motel seem cheery. Have Fun guys. |

My brother was on the road one time and there was a Motel 6, well known, and the little known Motel 5. Well the 5 was a whole $15 cheaper so he and his friend went with the 5. It was a little grimy but the light of day was what really showed how scary it was. When he woke up the sun was shining on the ceiling and he saw what look like lines, but they were slightly dotted and a magenta color. It took a minute to realize it was blood. Years later I was talking to a former junky who knew exactly what the lines were. Apparently a pastime of junkies in crap hotel rooms is while you are laying high on the bed you have a syringe with blood in it, and it's a game to make lines on the ceiling. Don't stay at crap hotels, just don't. |

I have a few things I'd like to sell, but not enough to justify a booth spot for sure. Is there a place there where a guy can sell a couple items with raising the ire of the show folks?

I've never had problem with people laying a couple things down in my spot. I can only bring what fits in a 914 anyway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

They do not have an informal place where you can open your suitcase and sell Porsche parts. Might not be a bad idea to have a small section like that of table space areas for people thou. Charge a small fee for the privilege and be done.
I have pre sold items in the past and delivered at the show, that is pretty easy to do. |

A Couple years back they started making everyone buy two spots, the result was a lot of guys with a blanket of stuff, and a lot of empty space. So if you're looking for a corner of someone's spot, it shouldn't be hard to find. We get 4 spaces, but I've already commited to three friends who want "just a corner", but trust me there is a lot of space out there.
Hope to see everyone there, we are in Booth C60, look for the Wrights! Lots of FREE stuff. Attached image(s) |

Waiting on the packet for the paid vendor spots I got mine several weeks ago, you should reach out to the Hershey folks, the last time I didn't get mine with everyone else, they had forgotten me and I ended up on F row, i.e. Siberia. Shoot me an email if you need a direct link. |

Yeah, don't assume you are taken care of, there is nothing worse then getting there the morning of and having to wait in the left line. See everybody there, Big John will be showing feats of great strength! Attached image(s) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Please tell me the gas can is coming@ Yes, The gas can will make it's appearance again! This time at America's Best Value Inn. All are welcome to partake. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Super 8 is way to expensive to justify! Looks like we did a fine job of splitting up the party this year... |
