For those of us who would be coming from warm weather climates like Florida, the third week in April in Minnesota would likely be colder than anything we have ever experienced in our entire lives (except of course that I am originally from New Jersey
 )

Very few of the tables have sold and they have one autograph guest (unknown Viking). No one is going to downtown Murderapolis for a card show. It might happen because they probably got the location for a song, but it will not be successful. A few hearty locals may attend, but a “national”, no.

Gone to Minneapolis on business many times. Never had an issue. Very pretty downtown.
Minneapolis has problems but its hardly the wild west. I've learned over the years that people's reports on what's a dangerous city or not are usually influenced more by political spin than FBI data. Politicians all around the country talking about how dangerous NYC is and its one of the safest big cities in the world and demonstratively safer than much of small town America. Like the governor or mayor's political party: crime is under control. Don't like his or her politics: crime has never ever been worse.

A lot of tables have sold, we are around 215-230 tables sold, so it is already by far the biggest show in Minnesota. We do have 5 autograph guests and yes they are not super known, but the show is more about the cards and the autograph guests are just an extra I have made the autos super cheap $5 per because I know they are rather unknown, but they are all still professional athletes, and this is not an autograph focused show. I would just like to let everyone know that the show in my eyes is a success and another show is already in the works. We also do have multiple dealers driving and flying in from across the country. If anyone has any questions or concerns feel free to email me @ izaakh@mncardshows.com (it is the same email that is on the bottom of the website (Cardshowmn.com). Thanks Izaak

Vintage at the show
Hi Isaak, thank you for posting and good luck with your show! Any idea on the number of vintage focused dealers who will be setting up? I'm three hours away and could make the drive if it's not all Pokemon and refractors (which are certainly cool too, just not my thing).
I'd also like to say that I think Minneapolis/St Paul is a great metropolitan area. No city is free of problems, but they have a lot of great things going on and I enjoy visiting. Downtown Minneapolis is really fun, the kind of place I wish my hometown of St Louis was more like. Mike

Hi Mike,
I know for a fact that there will be dealers that have a mix of both modern and vintage and I also know of a handful of dealers that will have only vintage. Then there are also a lot of dealers that I couldn't tell you what they have, but Minneapolis has a monthly show that most of the dealers have only vintage, and some if not almost all of those dealers will be set up here also. I would say that you'd defiantly be worth making the drive up.

I hope your show is a success. I would have bought two or three tables from you if it didn’t include Thursday and wasn’t downtown. It is not a safe area.

I've been to downtown Minneapolis many times...for baseball games, hockey games, walked around to some of the restaurants/bars in the evenings. Never once had an issue.
