    why are there no gatherings in the midwest?!!

    Seriously - Why the fuck don't sponsors love us out here?!!!

    I see all these shows going on all over the place, but for it to be worth my while i need at least 4 days to talk to people, shake hands, grabass, etc..... and my schedule only allows 3. Come to Chi town or something FFS!!!

            Because it sucks here (yes, I live in the Midwest too).

            Nothing to do
            Nothing to see
            Landlocked from all sides
            and a big bunch of blah
            not to mention unpredictable weather


            Bah!

              I disagree. I love it out here.

              Anyway, other than proving to me that the world did NOT run out of idiots - thanks for bumping my thread, because I realized the true answer to my question.

              I'll let someone else post it though, because why waste a good thread? :D

                sorry.

                I'm not an idiot though. I just don't like it here. I'm glad that you do. I just hate it in my own area of the Midwest.

                I love it how when someone disagrees, they're automatically an idiot.

                  don't get me wrong - there are tons of idiots in the world. I read your reply and saw that you were using your own negative view of your world and your situation and applying it to my question, and quite honestly - that doesn't make sense to me.

                  "I hate it here, I hate my life, and that's why (*insert random situation here*) (*insert random negative word like sucks, blows, is bullshit, etc*)" - when I see someone post stupid shit like that, I tend to think they're most likely an "idiot" - or rather, someone I won't be listening to.

                  nothing personal, as far as it makes sense to apply that phrase to our situation.

                  :D

                                The idea is to have them where people would actually like to go, and not have them where people actually try to get away from.

                                    that's close enough to the answer I came up with. I love Chicago, but the draw is based on my personal experiences, not the advertising budget.

                                          This is what happens every time someone starts talking about "Mid-West" meetings. I live fairly close to the exact center of the US, but I'm 3 hours drive plus a near 2-hour flight away from Chicago. If I were up for that, another couple of hours to the "usual" locations really doesn't make that much difference.

                                            The midwest isn't as porn-friendly.

                                              you really think everyone in Cali and FL really wanna go to their same state?

                                              just because YOU don't wanna go, doesn't mean everyone else does... theres ALWAYS people coming to the midwest to get away from the shores...

                                                I guess there are plenty of reasons why. I've lived in Nebraska and now Missouri (as far as midwest states) and yeah, there isn't anything out here.
                                                I think
                                                The idea is to have them where people would actually like to go, and not have them where people actually try to get away from.
                                                that quote summarizes it right there. And you absolutely cannot forget this

                                                      Chicago is such a huge city. The only "real show" held at a larger city is L.A.. I really never understood why there weren't any events in Chicago, even smaller gatherings. I would be at any Chicago event in a heart beat.

                                                              Casper is a great city except all the damn wind. I grew up in lander, about 90 miles from Casper. To see any major concerts or even fly anywhere worthwhile, everyone had to go to Casper. I learned to love the city and might even retire back to that area one day.

                                                                        Chicago is a much better city, but it's expensive and congested. St. Louis would be easier to pull off a get together/networking event.
