[John Richburg]

I hope to be there. I sure do like the idea of name tags. Sure would help someone like me that knows names from the Board but has never put a face with the name.

[Corner Notch]

Hank,

I just text messaged Troy to reserve me 2 tables. Might want to see if we can ride down together for that one. Troy see if you can put HH and my tables close to one another, if possible.

Thanks

[bigpond]

Sounds good to me DG. Sounds like it's gonna be a huge show.

[L.Wiggins]

Its always a great show.Cant wait for it to get here.Thanks Richard!

[Corner Notch]

Just spoke with Troy and all the tables have been reserved. Sounds like this is going to be a big show for sure. See you guys there.

[lafuzz]

Tables are sold out. Troy said to give him a call and he would start a waiting list in case of any cancellations. 334-703-4313.

[mtskinner]

Gonna be a good one!!!

[troyfutral_kid]

Per Daddy, all 138 tables have been booked. You can call him at either 334-703-4313 or at home 334-821-5823. And he'll add you to his waiting list. You can also email him at dothanshow@yahoo.com. Jessica & I handle all of Daddy's online stuff. He doesn't get on the computer. We try to check it every morning & get them to Dad asap.

Also, i've kinda read this forum off & on over the past year or so, and I just wanted to say thank you for all the nice things that have said about my Dad. It's nice to know that others think he's as great as we do.

Thank you so very much,

Angelia

Thats killer Tommy!
Whats the deal with hurricanes and Dothan shows? Was it last year that we had one roaring through during the show or the year before?

[L.Wiggins]

Thats right we had a flood last year at the show.I think K.Dowdy has some pics of the roads flooded on his way home from show.

[rwcollectibles]

Yeah, I missed it because there was a tornado on the ground right on the road I had to cross to get there along with other tornado warnings and sightings all over S.W. Ga. and S.E. Ala.

David, thanks so much for taking the time to take the photos and post them! I know how much time is involved in that and sometimes a thankless job. I really appreciate it!

I just wanted to say a quick thank you from Troy & the rest of the Futral Clan. We really appreciate ya'll. I'm working on getting the pictures I took loaded to the website. I should have them up within a day or so...as for names to go with the pictures, I'll try to get them in as soon as I can. I'll have to corner Daddy to get that info. Again thank you so very much for making this such a great show.

[David Leonard]

A few more

[claybird]

I had a great time at the show! Thanks to Troy and everyone else!

[Buckster]

Those bone fish hooks left me with drool runnin down my chin.

[WETT]

Forgive me, for I haven't been to too many shows, but how come there is so much "non native american" related items at these shows? Is it due to a shortage of participants to reserve tables and the others had to be filled regardless of material? I suppose when I think of an artifact show, the first thing that comes to mind is "Indian." Coins, bottles, etc.....Just seem out of place. I totally understand if Troy was not renting enough tables and had to get them reserved. Personally, I loved going to the show. It was a great opportunity to see some faces that you normally don't see throughout the year. Especially if you don't frequent these sort of events.

[george]

Probably because a lot of people that collect artifacts also collect other things. No t-shirts, cellphone holsters, and license plate tables?

[serpio1]

Yes what George said ..I think people who collect in general collect all kinds of history related Items.....It's fun too!
