Re: [AlpacaTalk] Re: Let them eat cake.
I have some insight as to why they couldn't sell out Utah. It's out of
the way for EVERYBODY. Nationals, held in Louisville or Cleveland is
convenient for a large portion of the east and midwest, and certainly
those who live in Litchfield won't even have to stay in a hotel for the
show. How convenient is that!
Salt Lake City is not a bad drive for those in the Southwest and
California, but if you live anywhere else, it's a nightmare. 13 hour
drive over mountain passes from Eugene. Actually from Phoenix, it's an
11 hour drive. Also a bit much.
