They held ESX in Pittsburgh and I did not bother going even though i
live here. first they wanted $50.00 to attend for what?  well
eventually they gave out free passes but then they had the exhibit
shows from 2-5  instead of in the evening when guys can take off and
attend events.
And then the organizers stand around and wonder why no one showed.
Local distributors I buy thru where totally disgusted by the whole
deal.

Its the same with almost all shows you go to be it fire/ ems etc. no
one wants to do anything to accommodate
working schedules and the displays are pitiful and dull.
