How about bringing it back to Richmond? Though I'm sure there are other spaces available in the NoVA or Baltimore area.

I don't see the Chantilly Show being moved to Maryland because that would bring it too close to the Philly Show, which Joe D. also runs or co-runs. Taking it to Richmond or a bit further south (Raleigh, NC?) is my guess, if Joe D. doesn't find another suitable location in No. Va. The key may be where the majority of Chantilly dealers are willing to travel to.

If they can't find a new venue in northern Virginia, I'm guessing they will move it to the Fairgrounds in Richmond (same location as the old TUFF Stuff shows).

The Tuff Stuff Card Shows in Richmond! Alan, those were some good times! IIRC (which I often don't), they also did a few shows in No. Va. (Springfield?).

Oh Tough Stuff, you were so multidimensional and comprehensive. Loved that guide!

I have lived in Northern Virginia my entire life. I have gone to the Dulles Expo Center many, many times over the years either to the sports memorabilia show, the Big Flea, or others. I was surprised by this news. You know the Expo Center used to be in the two buildings, the other being the one that houses the Walmart. I am not sure this is a done deal, but money talks, and the County may or may not push back. I can't think of an alternate location that is close by unless show sponsors rent a large building on a nearby college campus or other location. There is one, or used to be, an expo center in Fredericksburg, VA but that is somewhere around 50 miles away southbound in the direction of Richmond, VA off Interstate 95. I am hoping that in the end the Dulles Expo Center will continue to exist. I know IKEA has been looking to move into this location, and another spot has been talked about. We will have to see how this turns out, but I hope the location remains the same as it is with maybe some improvements.

The show has been good. I have been there from Pittsburgh four or five times. The only bummer is that during all the shows which I did a round trip each time I only ever bought one card. It was a 1916 Zee Nut Morrie Rath off William Chappell for $30.00. Wonderful to walk around the show and a wonderful drive.

Richmond for the win! Tuff Stuff flourished here for years.

I'm sorry to hear this. While it was never of any benefit from a vintage autograph perspective, I have fond memories of working it many years ago.
