Other than that seeing all these diseased pups that are knee deep in this stuff, it's awesome.

I second this- comfortable walking shoes (sneakers) are a must. It's a big show spread across many galleries, not to mention everything outside. Also, pack light and save grabbing the magazines for the end of the day, otherwise you're stuck lugging it around all day. Some vendors will have bags to hand out (free advertising) so you won't need to bring a bag to carry all the swag you'll likely be picking up. Unless you bring something to roll behind you...

I did that once. I find that even sneakers need a week of break in before SEMA. The show is brutal on feet.

I was thinking the same thing --- been there done that.... big mistake!

I actually thought about that, so I went for a run around my neighborhood yesterday. Its an accelerated break in process. Its like heat cycling the tires before you really push them. HAHA.

The daytime high temps will be about 10 degrees lower this week than last year, which is nice.

I knew I could count on you guys! Thank you very much for the info I will be packing shorts, jeans and some nice shirts tomorrow!

I have a couple month old pair of shoes I can wear so they should be broken in by now
