I'm thinking about going to the NHL All-Star trading card show in Atlanta. Not a hockey fan at all but would like to go to the show if its decent. Anyone been? Is it Hockey oriented or are there some big deaelers. The more I type I realize I'm probably going anyways. Any input appreciated.

ironically this show is the one re-scheduled from the lockout year ( which I was making plans to myself attend) At anyrate from what I hear it is pretty cool for the most part. Make sure not to buy hockey wax products PRIOR to the show (dont open them I guess would be better way to say it). Sucker Deck and ITG will have both most likely have booths set up for redemptions upon breaking their products in their space and will do special stamps for selcted random cards. The usual array of special A/S cards set will be available I would suppose, especially from "the industry leader UD" ( hold on I gotta puke- sorry). Might want to check the NHL or the Thrashers websites for more info or details on promotions, dealers (slots are like $2500 plus- no kidding), show hours and the like. Hope this helps...........
