What a Fukking joke. Environmental impact? A couple old bags up a podium can stop a boat show? One of the biggest in the world? They really must not have anything better to do...

All that means is that the right palms have not been greased yet and that there are campaign contributions to be made, lunches to be bought etc etc.....

Couple questions?

Why isn't the show being held where it always has been?
What's the deal on the marine stadium? Is it getting totally retrofitted like has been talked about did years?
How the hell will they pull off this show there?

Time to figure on a new venue in a new city that would welcome "us".

Cannot imagine how a group could take something like this for granted... kind of a slap in the face if you ask me.

I may be pretty sure , I will sound like a dumb but for saying this . Have it in Orlando . . we have a great convention center . tons of parking that is not $40 per day . great restaurants. tons of hotels, all ay reasonable prices. and Orlando has the road set up for large amounts of traffic flow.
