Sounds like my daughter at a BRS meeting. I won a raffle that had options, so I let her pick. Out of all the choices (gift cards, etc.) she came back to the table with a random advertisement t-shirt with a fish on it.

I hope this guy had a bigger/better tank or he’s no real reefer imo. Lol
He had a small car and no way to get it back to Jersey. We suggested that he stay somewhere that night, rent a van, and bring it down the next day- but he had to work Sunday. He sold a ~$3000 tank for $300 and walked away. Probably the only guy who left the FFM ahead for $.

More corals than gallons
A small 6 or 12 pack sized cooler is best. They do a "coat check" type thing in the front so you can leave them there. But dont want the kids to have to watch over your 70 quart Yeti!
Cash is easiest, though many retailers will have some form of card machines on their phones. I find better deals are had with cash
Cooler check is going to be there again and still free! Just stop by, drop off your cooler (whatever size you want!) and we will keep it safe for you. We have a whole room set aside to stash the coolers in for the day and you can stop by and drop of your new purchases as many times as you would like. Stop by early and pick your cooler up at the end of the day! Kinda like I hated writing my name on raffle tickets, I hate carrying a cooler around all day- so I fixed it at the FFM!

So what's the raffle ticket fix? Do you assign numbers to people and we write the number on back? Or something else?
I used to print little labels on stickers so I could just stick and peel and not write out 100 tickets.
If you see any that say "MrX - BRS" on the back that'll be me. (I hope you see lots of them! *grin*)
We do an "Easy Raffle Station" where you can give your name/contact info and you get a number. You just write your number on the back of your tickets and when you win, I can get in touch (if you are not there). I don't use the info for anything other than the raffle for that year, so no worries about getting tons of junk mail or anything like that. Just trying to make people's lives easier.

It's always an amazing event. My problem is that I enjoy the shopping, but hate the acclimating, dipping, etc. I'm gonna be up all night.
