    I seen on another forum it was just ok and got busy with long lines waiting to get in. I went to the last one and to me the drive was not worth it. I’m waiting until the Gettysburg show myself even with my tax refund burning a hole in my pockets.
     
    Question: heard this used to be lame but now it is a good show? Not sure the source.

    The opposite.
    In the early-mid 1990's, it was a killer show with 1000-1200 tables and no junk vendors. Around 2005, they started charging for parking as well as admission. Shortly thereafter, the jerky, chinese knives, etc. started showing up. It is still much better than, say, Timonium, but nothing like its former glory.
    Harrisburg is my home town.

    I went today. Parking was free but the line was massive. I donated to the NRA to jump the line. It has become a small show and not worth the drive. I’m really shocked at how small it’s become, it’s about the same size as the Howard County show
