I will be there as well and will stop by the booth. I have been trying to see how much the entry fee is for spectators. Any idea?

Awesome. As a student on a tight budget, that makes me happy. If I wanted to bring my Fox with me, is there specific rules on how to do that (cased etc.)

Neil, a couple of things: get to the event early if you want a good parking spot; otherwise you'll be on the side of the road a long ways away. You'll see plenty of people walking around with uncased guns. In fact if you have a gun for sale/trade or want comments on your gun, that's the thing to do. As George mentioned, no entrance fee. It's usually hot hot hot, bring shorts and similar. "Vintage type" clothing is not necessary and in fact you'll only see a few people wearing same.

Anyone needing RST "short" shells ... RST drives down with a BIG truck with plenty of shells and it's always set up near the entrance. You can save yourself freight if you buy while at the Southern. Anyone wanting to buy a gun, bring cash. Some of the vendors are reluctant to take a personal check from someone they don't know. Besides you can generally do better on a cash money deal. Silvers
