Sportsman Show any good?

[bigugli]

I didn't see or hear any protesters. Probably a little show for the news cameras and then back to the sheep pen where they belong. 

[LostAnotherOne]

Ya guys there were around a couple dozen at the lights going into the show and few others at the intersection down the street.  It was a little awkward waiting to walk across it with my bass pro shops hat on lol.  Got a few looks but no words spoken. Should of gave them some pointers on how to set the hook properly haha.

Protesting what? Needless torture of fish maybe? Fish torture me more than I do them.

[LostAnotherOne]

Looked into it and they were protesting against Canada allowing imports from trophy hunting.  Not so much against the fishing guys.

I heard Doug Ford was there. Lot's of handlers and press. he made a $50 donation to something.

If the guy is spend 25-100k on a rig. He/she can be anything including a moron.

A guy I'm thinking about was Lake Erie troller in the early Power Pro days. Wasted 1 hr

of my time litterly brow beating me and obnoxious. Then he went to all 5 of our store location 

at the show and brow beat every pro staff for 1 hour. Then he came back to booth

and spent his $20.

That sir Iron is a MORON.

These guys are not even 1% ers I politely tell or introduce them to Iron and walk away.

Interesting fact from show manger 67k thru show last year 68k 2 years age.

You have data to prove this? or is this just a made up number?

[misfish]

I stayed away so I wouldn't be part of that 0.02 % 

[Old Ironmaker]

It's more like 4.05% go there not to have a good time. I do that exact thing when I decide to take in a Bills game. Plus it costs a heck of a lot more than a ticket to The Sportsman Show, way more. An corner end zone seat last October was $195.00 USD. 10 bucks US for a warm cup of Pony swill, 8 bucks for actually a not bad Hot Dog. I love having a bad time.

Same here......but talk about a "racket"..........the vendors pay big bucks to display their junk and then the customer pays big bucks to park, get in and eat and drink the horrible food they serve, not to mention most vendors have upped their prices to make up for the booth they were over charged in the first place.

Now when does the "Fun" begin............oh, I know........when you finally get to LEAVE . . .  LOL

[Garnet]

No parking fee at this event. The food is ok . And judging by the number of beers I seen carried around can't be that expensive.

It's not for everyone just a short Va K.

[chris.brock]

We went for a family outing and it was a good time. $30 total for my wife and me as an OFAH promo code thing, my little guy free, free parking, brought our own food/ drinks. I'm pretty sure my son will remember the shooting pellet guns and sitting on the OPP sleds and ATVs.
