That was one of my favorite parts of last year’s National. Meeting the content creators and fellow collectors and looking at what we were all buying was so fun. I would definitely take an Uber or whatever to get there and buy a ticket if we need to help with costs. I know you are all trying your best. If it can happen I will be there!

Mr. commissioner...I will be in Cleveland with my buddy, very much looking forward to seeing yourself and all the KZitemrs, It would be an absolute shame to not be able to put this together, I agree with some of the comments if there is a cost that needs to be associated with finding a venue I'm on board... keep us updated.....the kid...

Mike, the Barrel Room at Fatheads Brewery in Middleburg Heights can be rented out which is 3 miles from the IX and is a good time w food too. Not sure the pricing. Batting cages across the street too if so inclined. 😂 I’m sure you checked hotels around the airport and in Middleburg Heights that have meeting spaces. I also know the Aviator restaurant has meeting spaces but could be more pricey, not sure. Hope you find something.

In 2018 we did the meetup at the Marriott near the Cleveland Airport. I can't remember if it was the Northern or Southern one, but there are a few videos out there from that meetup on MikeO's channel and others. It was a decent sized lobby with benches for sitting and a decent sized bar and tables for sitting. Nowhere near as big as the space in Chicago but it got the job done in 2018.

We have something called a Tailgate in Fargo, before football games. See if they allow it in the event parking lots. Otherwise get some food & beer trucks to setup in a corner of the parking lot. If I was going, I'd see if they allowed campers in the parking lot. Good luck, congrats Mavs, and I hope they beat the Celtics.

Mike, never had the chance in all the years to go to a National. I was telling some of the others the $$$ & time off from work is just difficult. Miss the opportunity to visit so many others and just talk cards and more. Agree Trout is just one of a kind I like to PC. Have some great runs in the years of 9 or higher. His health is just bad luck.

Chicago is so ideal (outside of the suboptimal 90 degree air conditioning system) I'll be there again in 25 but I am very much curious to see how it all plays out this year! Was it you guys who were bunking with homeless dudes in AC? I can only imagine what cleveland will bring 😅

Mike, we're staying in the same hotel. I'm assuming that area shown in the first 3 pics of the gallery is made to look much bigger than it actually is. I agree with others a brewery or something with some sort of designated area, while not ideal might be the best route. Bummer I was hoping to hop in the elevator and go down stairs 🤣

To and from, as I will be driving 2 hours home to Michigan each evening, after the show. Wed, and Thursday only most likely. There’s a killer sandwich shop near the airport as well. Best pastrami I ever had Better than Katz Deli in NYC!
