IBM / SAM Convention

WOW what a great long week. The IBM/SAM have not had a convention together in 35 years. This was such a cool thing to find out. Well what do I say about a long week. If you can think of someone they where most likely there and I hope you were. The very first show that I saw in my first 30 min of being there was with MAc King as the MC and then from there it was game on. I did not stop until 10 o'clock at night when I finally went to my car and got my stuff. There was so much going on that I did not want to miss anything.That night and I think only that night was an early one I went to bed around 1 in the morning.
In the next few days I will be putting more info on my blog about what happened. I have got some great pictures as well. I am just putting a few on here today.
Picture number one is me with John Racherhaumer after his lecture on Ed Marlo. He was such a nice guy and to see some of his card stuff afterwards that night was so cool.
Well on Monday I was walking around and talking with my friend Michael Finney and look who walked by . Can you saw Marshall Brodien. It was great to get to talk to him about some of the past.

Well around 12:30 Tuesday night I was walking around and saw a family friend. Bev Bergeron.

So I see this guy walking around with a rubber maide with some fur sticking out of it and I was wondering what it was.Well it was Mr Morris (from Morris costumes) showing the original Bigfoot costume and telling some stories about it for 45 min. I will post more on this later. The head in his left head and the costume i am holding is the original and the head in the center is the new head.



Well after the lecture about comedy magic David Williamson was hanging out with me and Micheal Finney. What a great guy he is. I really love to see him showing some great card stuff at 3:00 in the morning to a bunch of kids. He loves to take time for them. You go Williamson.


Well this is just the start of some great posts I will be sharing with you all. If you have any pictures or anything about the convention make sure to send it over to either me or Justin Robert Young at itricks.com
