SEMA show 2010

Have any of you guys been to SEMA before? If so whats your 2 cents on it? Was planning on making my first trip to Las Vegas this fall and was planning to attend- according to their website the show is not open to the "public" so how does a guy get his hands on a ticket?

Thanks for your help!

I've been once and I'm going again this year. I haven't been to any car related trade show since because there's simply no point. Anything related to custom cars, and cool stuff from car makers, will be there. The show is 4 or 5 days and if you go there from opening to closing, and really pace yourself, you MIGHT get to see everything. If you plan to goof around in Vegas, get there early. You're not gonna be up for much of anything in the evenings of the show days.

Through a friend. Ask around, someone will probably hook you up. I do wonder how much they check - maybe BS your way through the form and see what happens.

You need to be a business to get tickets as it is a trade show. If you know someone who own one they will be able to get you tickets they type of company doesn't matter.

BigD you're going again this year? I'm going to try and go with Dave we should all hook up.
