Fanatics Show in Chicago

Does anyone know how many tables are set up @ this show or how it compares in size to The National?
Thinking about going, but it is a long way. I usually go to The National & at least one of the Chantilly Shows every year & was thinking about trying this one.

    I am only guessing but I would think the Fanatics Show is about 35-40% the size of the National when it is at Chicago. I usually go (350 miles) to one of the Fanatics shows each year. Considering the limited number of large regional shows each year, I would say it is usually worth my time. Like the National, if you are looking for deals on high grade vintage cards you will need to do some searching. I am going in March, among other things, to save about $50-$60 in USPS costs by submitting some older valuable cards to PSA in person. I always seem to find enough vintage cards to enjoy viewing and maybe purchase at Fanatics. Plus you don't need to worry about getting a hotel near the convention center like you do at the National.
