Location: Des Moines IA | Chicago has more stuff, but no beer, Milwaukee has beer, but less stuff. Better hit both just in case. |

| I'm not sure which one to go to either.. although the beer is tempting in Milwaukee.. I'd like to hit up the better show.
Anyone know if either show will have lots of bucher baits?

There was beer at the swap when I went. I think Slamr actually buys the beer.
To be honest, I don't remember. I had too many beers.

I believe I actually asked the folks at Official's Time Out to grant us MORE wait staff up in the room and to make sure that the the bar is open for business by 7PM up in the room. The beers are also much less expensive versus those at the Milwaukee Show. I however, will not be buying any for anyone but maybe myself. |

| Chicago is a blast,,,were coming from MPL's wouldnt miss it,,,at Milw you have to pay for parking=less money for Beer. Cant beat the seminar line up that Chi has and you get a full size pool lure demo,,,,,get to that True Glide booth early before they sell out or by Sat noon the sign in the booth will read "just like fishing you should have been here yesterday"!!!! |

What? you're not interested in supporting RumbleKnott Team's beer intake this year? Just cuz we both got jobs now doesn't mean we'll turn down free beers!!! You'll have to buy us a few, or you'll be lugging a lot of food to your truck all by your little self there buddy!!!! LOL

| Not really a question of one being a better (worser?) show, but that they are different. My way of dealing with the dileama, is that I go to both. It makes two weekends of hanging out around musky stuff and folks instead of only one. If you see a really good looking fellow that looks like he's a top stick, be sure to say hi! Also say hi to me.
