Lots of empty booths and more non hunting stuff than last year.

By the way two blocks down by the police station is free parking.

Probably better than by the train station and inner city grocery

three booths selling " custom hand made damascus knives" all three had same knives.
As for the protesters their were maybe 10, maybe only 2 had the same agenda.
was standing there talking to the two nonhunters when the police first arrived, he said they had received a call about a large protest he ask me what i thought, told him their didn't seem to much to it.

I'm sure they called the cops on themselves. Here's how this works, they call the cops and say it's big protest, that goes over the scanner the news monitors scanners and they show up and then the protestors get attention. That's exactly what they want, if you don't stop and talk, don't acknowledge they even exhaust they will leave in short time. Nothing is more defeating to someone seeking attention than to be ignored. Don't give them your time by talking to them.

Good to meet you CMC

Not a very good show but for $10 and $7 to park I consider it cheap entertainment. There are some good products mixed in with the bubba crap and raffles. Way to many annoying raffles
Saw some more African and bird hunts.

Those Damascus knives are a bunch of crap. They made a mint fulling people
