Sorry you had to go through this Knifelady. You always seem like such a sweet person on the forums.
Here is one person who will never go to the Tipton Gun and Knife Show.
Aren't there police at the show?
You did the right thing!
The promoter definitely should of banned this mentally ill person and also should of contacted the police so they could have put this on his record. (possibly)
Not every show has police presence. Some locals demand it, some shows are big enough they need it.
I have learned a lot from this thread, what to do, what not to do. In the end our lady went home at the end of the day and she wasn't hurt.
Brad you guys made the right decision and thank you for sharing it with all so we can make our own decision on his shows, not just Tipton. I have to say I haven't done any for awhile, now I don't know if I will.
This is not how I wanted all of this to end as to us not doing the Tipton shows again. I just feel that the promoter did not do his job correctly and let this guy get off scott free. The guy changed his whole demeanor after the promoter and Brad showed up. He wasnt acting all crazy and he didnt have a knife in his hand either at that point. I didnt want the show to suffer over this that is why I did not mention at the beginning which show it was. There are a lot of nice vendors there but they will make up their own mind on supporting that show or not. Yes I am safe but you know this could happen at any show anytime to anyone.
