The parking will be crazy on Sat. basketball tournament, r/c hobby show, liquidation sale, and gun show
I used to live down the road on Crescent Ave---if you don't mind walking there should be some stores nearby that you can park at and walk in if you want to save $4.
Clear your weapon in your car and put your loaded mag in your pocket. There is a table with a sign to check your firearms. I did this at the last show without a problem.Do they check for loaded pistols at the door like at the Indy1500? For those of us who carry what is that situation like?
I have to pick up my company vehicle this weekend in Ft. Wayne, I just might stop by.
According to IHSAA's website the girls game times are as follows:
Session I
Class A | Vincennes Rivet (26-0) vs. Fort Wayne Canterbury (24-2) | 10:30 am ET
Class 2A | Austin (25-2) vs. Fort Wayne Bishop Luers (18-7) | To follow
Session II
Class 3A | Rushville (25-2) vs. Fort Wayne Concordia Lutheran (23-3) | 6 pm ET
Class 4A | Ben Davis (27-0) vs. Merrillville (25-1) | To follow
Hopefully I miss most of the crowds, the hard part will be finding a parking spot. : /
To answer someones question, You cannot bring in a loaded firearm to the Fort Wayne gun show. Actually I have never been to a gun show that allowed a loaded weapon to enter the premises.
I like to go and try to find deals from guys walking through but that rarely happens anymore because the two guys (father and son) that check in the guns. They have a little side business going with one of tables. They will ask what you want out of a gun then tell you to stand there while they make a phone call then a guy will come out of the convention area and usually buy the gun. If I was paying for a table there I would be pissed. Hell I'm pissed and I don't have a table.
If someone can take some pics that would be cool.. I’ve never seen a go show outside of Cali (yes I know I live a sheltered life) and I would love to see how cool your shows are..
I’m soo jealous.. Have fun everybody..

Special "thanks" to Jared at 21st's table. I literally left him holding the bag...and he was very gracious about it.
if you like hanging out with a Monkey and a Marine!
