Chicagoland Pipe Show

[sucol]

Anyone going? I'm finally attending as part of an upstate NY contingent. I have been told it is the "Big Dog" of pipe shows ... :)

Just show up ... May 14/15 ... admission is $8 for one day, $10 for two. Although many of the deals happen during the Friday pre-show. You should make hotel reservations in advance.

I'll go too. I live in Geneva so it's not very far for me either.

Well, its a heck of a trip from Binghamton, New York ... but I'm going to make it. I hate flying, but the drive would be exhausting, so I'll just grit my teeth and give it a whirl. I've been smoking a pipe since 1977, and I've never attended a show. Unless I hit one of the NY Pipe Club shows in March, this will be my first one.

I'm hoping to make it down for this, maybe I can convince the wife and we can make a weekend out of it.
