SBE 2021 CANCELLED
- Thread starter SBC
- Start date
It's also about attendance not just being open or not.
I believe Alan is from NJ, a neighboring state to Pa.

There may be a contract with the venue so it may need to be held there.
Unless it's not being held there
That's what I'm thinking but maybe he doesn't want to alienate them long term. If they held it near me I might go for the first time.
My absolute favorite pool related event, sorry to hear the news. Business wise I think it would have been tough on the vendors. Between the people who would stay away out of caution and the lack of the TAP Rally in the Valley I think attendance would have been light. Not to mention that PA is being run by commies so I'm sure they wouldn't have allowed it anyway.
Two years now, I hope I can get an extension on my expiration date.

SO Alan must be busted which is understandable given there are almost no TV Commentator gigs left, if any, but that notice is absurd. He apparently thought he had an annual guaranteed High Income Gig. The lesson is " Save as much money as you can, cause nothing is guaranteed."
Maybe - or maybe variants will be the next reason to shut everything down while millions from all over the world enter the nation and bring variants with them. MLB is allowed to have 1/3 capacity in Missouri but the local McDonalds still has areas roped off to limit indoor dining. 15,000 people can't spread the virus but 15 people can?
I'd be more confident if I thought the people making these decisions weren't just making it up as they go.
He had the nerve to post that it was “too time consuming” to send refunds. I guess he’s really busy the rest of the year......

It's gonna be more work to give refunds a year from now so that makes no sense. I would bet a lot that he cant come up with the money until he gets some income next April for the first time in 3 years.. Besides doing the right thing far overrides the "too much work" excuse. Have you ever heard that excuse by any other business in any industry-It's too much work for us to refund you the money you spent for something you never received and we don't care that our reputation is shattered? Absolute Hogwash!
It is abundantly absurd and indicative of a shyster to even utter such words. He is using all the money to try to live out this year as he is BROKE. Just my logic induced opinion.
Absolutely the plan I am sure, but no guarantee next years event will happen either. Besides Covid there is always weather, fires, power outages and plenty more possibilities, remote as they may be. Not to mention he is 69 (younger than I) but HE isn't guaranteed to be on this earth next year either.
You do know that Alan gave everyone an opportunity several times to get their money refunded in the past few months.
I received my refund a couple of months ago.
My son got his refund 6 months ago.
I figured I could always register again if it was going to happen.
