Apperantly NAME is the #1 show in the whole USofA. Correct me if I am wrong. Why did they move from the west coast to the east side? Just curious.

Speaking of NAME... Anyone know what they're going to do at the KY State Fair this year since Kentucky Kingdom is not there anymore.

A larger midway should be in order I would think.

There's a NAME unit just outside of Atlanta at the Stonecrest Mall on east I-20, I think it's exit 74??. I don't remember seeing a show there in all the years I've lived around here. We drove by just as they were opening Thursday. Not many games. The rides were pretty nice. There was a Matterhorn that looked real good. And a little kiddie teacup ride that was pretty nice, too. I didn't get any pics, but if I get back by there I will take some.

It's the first year for that mall to have a carnival, I'm surprised since so many of the burb malls have played host to so many before. I think the only ones that haven't are Lenox, Phipps, Cumberland and Perimeter. BTW NAME's last day at Stonecrest will be Sunday.

I don't think they were a left coast show....Rosen had offices out there but that was it...

No, they aren't part of Clear Channel.

Are you sure they arent under Ticketmaster/Live Nation one of those media conglomerates?

Fred Rosen, who was the 'money man' for the NAME deal was the former head of Ticketmaster. When the deal happened, he was no longer involved with them. That's likely what you are thinking of.
