Dangit! I already have plans for that date. I really enjoyed the shows in Memphis years ago. It was called King-Con. If there is a way I can make it, I will.

I took the three and a half hour drive from Nashville. Totally worth it! 

This was one great show, with great people and great organization. Chatting with Fonzel Brown and Ken Leslie (sorry if I misspelled the names) was nice. Both are class acts. 

The Vendor side of the show definitely leaves a lot to be desired, but the model contest itself was not only good on quantity, but more importantly showed some top notch models. 

My wife got entertained by a gentleman I believe was either part of the Riff Raff club or with one of the vendors. Either way, I thank him wholeheartedly. I could hear her laugh across the hall and did not have to deal with "when are we gonna gos" every 20 min. 

I will definitely be back next year and I expect it to be even better. I would highly recommend attending this show in the future if one has a chance. 

Unfortunately I did not take any pictures, which I usually do at shows. I hope someone did and can post them on here.
