Long Beach?

Who is coming to the show this week?

I am setting up at Table 723 (Select Rarities) near the front of the bourse. Mostly silver dollars, but other things too.

    My first and last Long Beach was 1982. It is just too far for me to travel.

    I will post my usual request for show reports...We who must live vicariously in the coin world appreciate all reports. Cheers, RickO

    I'll be there spending money I don't have. :)

    I love the Long Beach show! Ain't nothin' you can't see if you look hard enough, (Ok...some of you can probably identify a lot of things you can't see....but I'm a simple guy :) ), and I usually top it off with a cold beer and pizza across the street at the California Pizza Kitchen.

    And this time, Friday is my NORMAL day off, so no burning vacation time!

    (I dare anyone to make my life even easier by telling me you have a VF-XF 1927-S or 1928-S Walker.....) ;)

    Sitting with the wife in my room at the Hilton right now. Just came back from Georges Greek Restaurant on Pine St. Very good! Catching a Dodgers game tomorrow. Trying to figure out how to get to the stadium and back without driving right now.....

    Of course I came to buy quarter and half eagle Indians, and surprise!, gold keeps creeping up.

    Ah well, really looking forward to the show!

    The Greek place is good but if you like seafood you HAVE to stop by Kings Fish House a few doors down. The King Crab legs are sooo good.

    Use UBER to get to the stadium

    The more you VAM..
  • musstangrmusstangr Posts: 61 ✭✭✭

    Thanks Chris, that was my probably my first choice actually, but the wife wanted something "different". Probably tomorrow.

    Never used Uber or similars, not sure I can get over the hump of trying in LA. Thinking parking at Union station and Dodger trolley up...or dare we try walking from there?

    Seems to always be the case for me too when I go to shows (metals way up.)

    King crab legs!? That's all it takes for the wife to say she'll go!

    Edited to add: just looked at the menu and oysters on the half shell, crab, and lobster are our favorites. Next time we go we will definitely visit that place.

    OK, I just got back from the set-up at Long Beach. Finally met Ian Russell, he is a great, friendly guy. Also met John Brush, very knowledgable and friendly. The show looks smaller than the past ones. I left early to try and beat rush-hour traffic.....I lost, ughhhhh!.

  • blu62vetteblu62vette Posts: 11,951 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Set up was on the slow side.
