Hopefully everyone had a good time, it went far better than I hoped. I guess if I had to comment on anything, I was hoping for a better turnout, I think we had ~200 non vendors through the door, but I think I hit almost every table to get opinions on what I could do to increase the foot traffic next time around.
Honestly I don't think people expected such a pro event. I have to hand it to the vendors, you guys really made it look Like a pro gig. I actually thought I would be in the running with my uber slick little tank, but I saw the gauntlet thrown down. (I almost bought that island display tank from reef wholesale....only $200!!! I'm going to kick myself for passing it up.)
KUDOS to the guys who offered up prizes from our little group. Man people wanted those clownfish, and I heard the noise the crowd made when they didn't win the bigshow frags. Reef wholesale came through with a lot of stuff for everyone, and that was DEFINITELY cool. Flagswipe, J_T.... it was all awesome.
EVERYONE was awesome. I was stressed to shit from about 2 days ago. To the people that helped move tables, to people that didn't yell at me for no reason, even to the people that told my wife she must be a saint to put up with me, a genuine thank you. If I'm not mentioning you directly (like reefhero!), you know I appreciated your help, and I hope we all counted it as a success, and I hope you had a good time. ;D
