    Searching for a non-existent exhibit.

    Hello folks; new person to the forums here and second trip to Gen Con. Had a blast like last time, and hope for more of the same next year. However, one thing has been nagging me; There was one exhibitors booth in the dealers room I can't seem to find listed anywhere. The lists either don't match the places it could be, or don't have it listed. I thought I had a little business card from these folks, but it would seem to be either misplaced, or I am mistaken. So, my question is this; Does anyone remember that booth set up in the dealers hall, right across from the booth that sold all those nifty hanging hammock/chair things, that had a ton of air-soft weapons on display and for sale? They had a few other things, statues and other gamey arts... A name or something would be greatly appreciated, since I enjoyed my purchases from this year and was hoping to throw more money their way again.

    Well, if you can figure out the name of the hammock people, contact them, explain what you're trying to do, & they may remember who their 'neighbor' was.  Good luck!

    Or try...

    Or figure out who the hammock people were, look them up on the exhibitor list and check who the number across from them is.

    Complications

    Looking at the map the Gen Con site provides (The one in their event booklet seems just a tad out of date), I think I know the booth numbers. I'm pretty sure the booth I'm looking for is 1727, with the hammock booth being 1731. The problem happens when I try to look those up from the handy spread-sheet, also on the site; neither number is listed. I've looked in the general area, checking some of the names also on the 1700 "hall" as it were. No luck. Have I done all I can, or does anyone have another suggestion? I'm all ears.

    Well, the only thing I can think of is to contact the GenCon folks themselves.

    Plan B: check here

    Dave Campbell found Living Dice's online 2008 Exhibitor List, so you can go through there too.

    I do remember a booth that sold airsoft guns, but I don't remember the name, sorry. 

    As I recall, that was mostly what they did sell, I don't remember any non-airsoft merchandise for sale.  Are you looking for those sellers in particular, or are you just interested in airsoft stuff?  If it is just air soft merchandise in general, there are plenty of merchants selling over the internet, a quick google search will pull them up.
