Who is going to the SCI convention in Feb.2017?

I am booked.I was wondering who from AR might be there?

bcolyer

I will be there. Be working the Bubye Valley booth with Nigel Theisen and most of the other boys.

Larry Sellers

A friend and I will be there for sure. I know of a dozen or so others from New Mexico who will be attending. Bcolyer, maybe it's just some of the AR folks that aren't going? You know the ones.

By the time I hire a blonde for each arm, and rent a limo to arrive in, it gets too expensive for me. And my 10-gallon hat is at the cleaners anyway.

Dallas for me!

I would rather go to DSC but my job is getting in the way so I will be going to SCI this year. Last year I missed both (ironically due to the Caesars bankruptcy) so keeping my fingers crossed.

DSC is half the price since I can drive instead of fly but oh well.

I would like to try Dallas sometime but for the moment I find the hotel rates there much too high.It is a little AR snobby too.

Can't disagree with hotel rates, but what is "AR snobby"?

It is impossible not to know what it means.Everybody knows what it means even in Africa but people say nothing because of the AR bullies.

Same here. I'm not the least bit impressed with the blue-blood atmosphere at SCI.

It is interesting that some people have that perception of the SCI show. I not trying to be argumentative, but I just have not seen that atmosphere on the show floor at SCI any more than at DSC.

I love both SCI and DSC. Where else can we go and see friends and acquaintances from all over the world in one place. They are the greatest shows on earth.

That being said I have never been to any dinners, events, auctions, etc. at either show.

AR snobs are like the GOP elite during the latest presidential election.They tried to bully their way in choosing a certain nominee but failed.They felt that their opinion was more important than even the voters.
They feel that THEY should be the ones to decide you can own a double, which outfitters one can hunt with etc...
