Pavement Dave told us:

NEW EXPO ANNOUNCES DATE CHANGE
Anderson, IN - October 6, 2010 - Officials of the Great American Motorsport Exposition today announced that the new Trade Show - Auction - Swap Meet - Fan Fest has been moved back two weeks from its original date due to the need for more square footage.
As the show has grown, several additions have been added including a
swap meet area and a car and motorcycle corral. The event was
originally going to be held in a 69,000 square foot building at the
Indiana State Fairgrounds. The event will continue to be held at the
Fairgrounds but in the 139,000 square foot South Pavilion. With the
much larger building, the event will be able to accommodate everything
in one building....

I mean, it was just about 60 days ago that there was all that
need for an additional 70,000 square feet,?! Which of course coincided with all the excitment surrounding all the different events and the
popular date change:
Quote:
Show founder, Gary Schlafer, explained the reasoning for the date change. " To do everything we want to do under one roof we needed a much larger facility " explained Schlafer. " The response to the date change has been highly popular. We will be having a trade show, auction, fan fest, and swap meet all going on at the same time. The way the South Pavilion is set up, it allows for everything to be separated but yet in the same building
" continued Schlafer. "...

I just can't comprehend what could have happened to a show that just 8 weeks ago was:

This is all just very mind boggling.... I need to take a powder and
LIE down.
