When you guys talk about the Hershey show with all the good petro stuff, which one are you refering to? The car show in October or the Gameroom Expo in December?

Definitely the AACA Fall National Meet. The Hershey Gameroom Show is new this year and is being hosted by Jimmy Rosen (of The Sledworks Gameroom). I'm sure it will be a good gameroom show for jukes, pins, slots, etc and possibly a few gas pumps, but for the most "bang for the buck" go to Hershey in October! That is where I started my collection with the purchase of a set of oil bottles in 1971.

We are all talking about the Fall Hershey. This is touted as the largest auto related swap meet in the country. It is so large, it will take you the four days to walk it, provided you walk down the middle of each row and look from side to side. Try walking down each side of the row and you will never make it. Also, you better be in good enough condition to do all that walking. The show lasts from Wednesday to Saturday, but it is the weekend following another very large show "Fall Carlisle" held 30 miles away at Carlisle, PA. I have been setting up at both of the shows for over 10 years now and I do in one day at Carlisle, what I do at all the petroleum shows I attend, combined. While neither of these shows are petroleum related shows, there is so much of it at them that they are "must attend" shows. Jack Sim

Don't wait until Saturday to go ! I was not able to go opening day last year, and there were a large amount of vendors already gone - but I still left with quite a few 5 quart cans. Brady
