    it was a decent show I think. the vendor area was big I am thinking the same size as SMF with just vendors. The only bad vendor was the lady selling men's underwear company was called Chubby Hubby's Undies or something and she called me over. I know I am not a small man, but there are guys are there who weigh less than me that look worse than me. So I was a little ticked. If she was nice on the eyes then maybe it would not have been that bad. lol

    The guests were few but that will increase. Felix Silla is a great guy he offered to take a picture with me and he was nice. The only negative for me at least was the artist area it was cramped beyond cramped I had a hard time fitting down the rows and if there was more than one person forget it not getting through.

    Overall though a good show not a huge amount of people there, but it will get bigger I think. They are taking suggestions on who to get so who knows what will happen next time.

    Next show is March 27 I think same location in Fairhaven which was surprising easy to get to.

    Sounds like a good time! Disappointed I couldn't make it down there, I collect SW autographs and don't have Silla's yet. I saw the ad for the underwear vendor, looked ridiculously expensive. Weird that she called you over, doesn't seem like a very professional approach. Hopefully they'll have a few good guests in March and I'll be able to make it down. Thanks for recapping the event for me!

    I think over time it will get bigger and better. It went from being held in a VFW for two shows to going to a hotel. It seemed to be organized and I think once word gets out this will become more popular. The only draw back is the location being out of the way for people in Boston, but for those in southern MA and RI this would be a great thing to head to. I was there in an hour, which is probably what it would take me to get to SMF.

    I will definitely attend their next show they are on FB as well.

    I searched for their page on FB but couldn't find it and the link on their website isn't working right now. I'll keep looking, sounds like a cool event. It's going to be about an hour or so for me to get there, but I'll definitely give it a shot.
