We did a quick walk around the Convention center today as everyone is beginning their respective booth set-up.

The show is staggering in size (two levels), dwarfing the Reno Convention Center.

The woman at the Convention bag distribution table said there were something like 300 additional exhibitors this year.

Bring good walking shoes!!!!

Wow! It dwarfs the Reno convention center?? Maybe I should consider a scooter to get around the show floor.

300 new vendors?
this years visit is going to be expensive for me!

hope to see AR members there!

Can't wait!

I better bring my running shoes as I am only flying in for the first day and then back home that night!

I've only got two days this year.....I'll have to remember to keep moving...

'Bought Dr. Scholl's inserts today.

Maybe I should consider a scooter to get around the show floor.

A scooter? How about a Road King Harley Davidson!

Is it at the las Vegas convention center or does mandalay bay have a convention area?

The Convention center is connected to Mandalay Bay Hotel.

Everyone have a great time, I could not put it together this year

The SCI Convention is at the Mandalay Bay Casino. The International Sportsman's Expo is at the Las Vegas Convention Center(LVCC) this weekend also. If you put convention center in any conversation with a taxi driver, they will take you to the LVCC and you will be extremely disappointed.

Hoping to only spend one day on the floor, I guess it will be a busy one. What time does the show open?

How long before someone starts the "out of shape SCI attendees" thread.

Like Raymedic has said above: It is NOT at the Las Vegas Convention Center. It is at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. The International Sportsman's Expo is slated at nearly the same time at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Don't go to the wrong convention center. Las Vegas has a number of big convention centers, including the Sands/Venetian, as well.

Currently clear and 65 degrees! Nice day!

flight leaves in 14 hours...the anticipation is really starting to get to me!

Cruised around there a bit after picking up my bag - its nuts! Kathi is right...be prepared to cover some ground.

I just picked up my bag and sure saw alot of scooters!!

I just returned from spending the day at the show. I spent the whole day upstairs, tomorrow is downstairs, then I'll just wander randomly.
Great show, but I still like it in Reno better.
