[QUOTE="Steelers Fan, post: 4046381, member: 16254"] Most of these shows are a diluted down version of what we experienced in the yesteryears. There is not quite as much hardware and a bit more BS for sale. If your 2 hours out consider this. 2 hrs x 60mph = 120m one way. 240m/20mpg = 12gal x $3.40gal = $40.80 + $12entry =$52.80. If you're not alone, you could split fuel fee. If you're already coming into to town go. If you're not you'll want to dig thru your old stuff to bring for trade/sale to make it more worth it. I still go to 1 or 2 local shows a year but I don't have that gas fee. [I]Oklahomabassin[/I] (above) hit the nail on the head. But that doesn't mean there aren't deals to be had at the small shows. I can understand small town boredom and just needing to get out also. If you're still not sure or quite committed try this. Run barefoot down the gravel road to the gas station. Buy some gas station food. Limp back home. Your feet will feel about the same as walking the show and your a _ _ will feel the same the next day. The difference is $40 bucks more in your pocket, or perhaps the most coveted grail gun of a lifetime. [/QUOTE]
