    The number of vendors seemed about half. I went Sunday morning and not very many folks were around. I suppose a good time to bargain, but all I needed were primers...

    Should have entered the drawing, might have had a chance this time around... :D

    I was astounded at the low vendor turnout.
    Smallest show I've attended there in a decade.
    I still managed to spend more than $100 on primers, projectiles, and plastic ammo boxes.

    I guess I can understand the low turnout due to the frigid weather.
    I'd be willing to bet some had issues with getting transportation started.

    I was on my way to meet a friend at the show when he called and said "don't waste your time". First time I've ever heard him be disappointed at a gun show.

    I was told they had some 30 vendors cancel, and it was unambiguous.

    I don't know about the number of vendors that cancelled, but I do know of least 4 vendors including myself that normally attend this show that did not attend because we were at the Ft. Wayne show...... which is not cancelling since we never scheduled to do this show.
