<p>[QUOTE="C-B-D, post: 1842951, member: 43130"]Hey all. Just a few reminders, and you can add your own to this thread. There was indeed a robbery at the summer FUN show in Orlando. A vest-pocket dealer's car was broken into while he ate at Denny's near the convention center. He lost many thousands of dollars in Morgans. Police believe he was followed from the show and then his car was broken into (in broad daylight), after he went into the restaurant.</p><p>1. Never leave your coins in your car, and please use the room safe at your hotel, if there is one.</p><p>2. Try to stay and park as close to the convention center as possible.</p><p>3. Never pull out your cash at the show and count it in front of everyone at a table, just to see how much you have left. (I've seen this happen a lot, and it paints a target on you).</p><p>4. Walk quickly to the convention center with your fist clinched, and with peers whenever possible. (That sounds funny, but colleges and universities recommend this to students as a personal safety measure. Thieves will try to avoid a potential fight/flight scenario).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
