BCA Trade Show, Chicago, July 10-12

[Bob Jewett]

The BCA (not the pool league) will have its trade show in Chicago again this year. You need to have some billiard-related connection to attend, I think. If you sign up by April 19th it's cheaper (free for BCA members). For others, a $25 registration fee is good for up to six people from your billiard-related business.

I might be interested in attending this but, I do not know much about it. Are there many cuemakers that display?

Thanks,

What will I see at BCA

I own a pool room, I guess I qualify?

What will I see there and what benefit will I get by going.

In general it is not a "consumer" trade show like the SBE. It is mostly directed at retailers such as room owners who will be buying wholesale quantities. Here is a map of the booths as of the end of January. Some cue makers are listed:
