Super Billiards Expo - Info Thread

Allen, the fact that there is not a hotel connected to the new location just doesn't work for my wife and I as we have to go back and forth to our room several times a day. Do you know if the hotel, to be constructed, will be large enough for a high number of Expo attendees in addition to your staff and the vendors?

I'm just wondering if I have attended my last Expo.

Hi Rich, yes, not having a hotel attached is definitely an inconvenience. Unfortunately, we had no choice but to move - as the old venue has closed and is being reconstructed into a casino.

We feel that the new place is a great option though - it is right down the road, twice as big, and all located on one floor (no more stairs!)

I do not know many details about the new hotel slated to be built - they have just told us they are planning to build one. I would imagine that they will consider the proper occupancy rates to run major tradeshows, as that is their main business, and they will surely be getting lots of new business since the VF Conv Center is shutting down/changing business.

I hope it is not your last Expo either! :) There is a Hampton Inn that is less than a mile from the new venue, although I am guessing you know that and it is still not suitable...

Hope this info helps.

Unfortunately we will not be having a Scotch Doubles event this year - although the TAP League may have that as part of their Rally in the Valley Series... I am really not sure at the moment, if you are a TAP Player, you will have to check with them...

And the Wednesday Warm Up event is happening, and it will start and finish Wednesday night (were you asking if it is a multi-day event?)

We do have an area that we have designated for daily mini-tourneys, set up the same way as the Wed Warm Up. I am not sure of the schedule for those at the moment, we may have to allocate some of those tables for the increased attendance expected in the TAP League event...

If we have the space and time, we will definitely have some turbo events. Our focus is on the Players Championship events and TAP League events - once those events have the required number of tables and time needed, we will determine the best way to conduct anything else...

Hope this helps...
