I've only been to two, both on the East Coast.

1988 in Atlantic City with my dad - remember seeing Ernie Banks walking around the show floor. I never knew there were that many baseball cards.

2010 in Baltimore with my son. The highlight was seeing Earl Weaver, Carmelo Anthony and Mankind in the hotel lobby and then wiggling our way into a Panini VIP event and meeting John Riggins and Pudge Rodriguez.

Default I went to the first one in 1980

I went to the first one in Los Angeles in 1980. I was 20 years old. I have been to all but five of them. I look forward to them no matter where they are located. It is great to see everyone, there, and catch up!

I almost went to the very first National in Los Angeles in 1980. I was only 15 at the time and still a year a way from driving. So I had to rely on my brother (who also collected) for a ride. Unfortunately, he got sick and our plans were cancelled. So I had to wait until 1985 when the National came to Anaheim.
