I have a pretty nasty sinus cold, fever, chills, etc.

I tested negative for Covid.

Hope everyone else is doing okay.

Dan Mckee, on another thread blamed Leon...not sure that was a joke or not. Either way sounds like someone brought more than their cards to share.

Odd, because based on what I see at the National(s) every year, baseball card dealers and collectors are some of the most hygienically conscious people you'll find.

Time for some branding. Next year, call the event "CardFestivus!"

Instead of on a message board, you can have an in-person "airing of collectors' grievances," and the "feats of strength" would be a measure of whose case of collectibles was the strongest in the room.
Additionally, every great (and not so great) card could be labeled as a "CardFestivus miracle!!"

Seems there’s the flu + norovirus spreading around the northern east coast. That’s what at least kept me from displaying at / attending this wonderful event.

Until next year. Andrew & Ryan, please let me know if you ever need help w/ this event. I’m here & ready to help with anything.

Great event: amazing cards on display and a fun, knowledgeable group of people to hang out with.

My only major pickup was the flu. Maybe we can run a post-event flu poll. (Kidding, please don't)

I started feeling sick Monday night, and have been "under the weather" ever since - sore throat, nasel congestion, etc. Tested negative for covid. I'm an old fart, so maybe I should wear a face mask next year.
