Title: Free Pass or Two for One for the Ultimate Fishing Show - Save $5 to $10
Post by: djkimmel on January 02, 2010, 01:16:02 AM
I have a small supply of passes to save you money on entry into the January 7 through 10, 2010 Ultimate Fishing Show at the Novi Rock Financial Showplace. I have a few free passes and a few buy 1 adult get 1 free tickets.

I know many of you go every year, but with the goal being to get more new people out to the show also so the first 20 members who contact me and tell me they are bringing someone who's never been to the Ultimate Fishing Show (http://www.ultimatefishingshow.com) before will get 2 free passes.

Since I do value your membership and participation here greatly, if you are a member with over 99 posts, you can also get 2 free passes. I can do this for the first 10 members with 99 or more posts who contact me for this.

The first 25 members with 10 or more posts can get a buy 1 get 1 free pass so you pay 1 $10 adult entry and get 1 free entry.

If you notify me over the weekend, I can mail them out to you  and you should get them in time. Bring a family member, a neighbor, someone from work, the club... help everyone break up the cabin fever with a really BIG show!! Us northerner can really use a reminder like this about why we love to do what we do. And the Ultimate Fishing Show really has something for everyone! That's why it is the Ultimate Fishing Show (http://www.ultimatefishingshow.com)!!

PM me or email to UFS at greatlakesbass 'dot' com. Break the cabin fever now before it's too late!! See you at the show!!

Dan I'll take a few of those passes.  I'll be there either Thursday or Friday to work the MSU Fishing Club booth but I want to come back on Saturday to see a few seminars. I can pick up the passes from you when I work the booth. Thanks a bunch.

Involvement of GreatLakesBass.com at this level with the Ultimate Fishing Show is all new so a lot is happening fast. I'm glad Ralph was able to help you out before GLBass signed up since I wasn't sure we'd be doing this for 2010 at the time.

I'll have a post up today listing the companies that make GreatLakesBass.com possible asking that all of you who attend the show, please please check out their booths and areas of the show, and say a big thanks to them for keeping this site going!!! Make sure you stop by and say hi to Ralph at Wonderland Marine West (http://www.wonderlandmarinewest.com). Wonderland Marine West was the very FIRST sponsor to sign on with GreatLakesBass.com when we were just a baby on the Internet. They have continued since day one so I owe a great deal to them for many reasons!!!

Waterfoul, are you bringing anyone new over to the Ultimate Fishing Show (http://www.ultimatefishingshow.com) who has never been there before? Have you been there before? How many of you coming over? Thanks,
Dan

I'm not sure if he is new or not. I don't think he has been to the Novi show or not.  He has been to the Lansing shows, does that still count?

Just trying to get a feel for who is coming and how many new people we can help get over some cabin fever :) Stop by and get your 2 tickets. Say hi, etc. Enjoy the seminars. Bring as many as you can!

I could use a couple tickets if you still have some left. Planning on going with skeeterman190 and I have never been to the Ultimate Fishing Show before.

Hey Dan,

I am not working a booth this year for a change, so I could use a couple of passes if you have any left.  I am also bringing a buddy from church (Saturday) who has never been to the show before.

Thanks Dan.  We'll be there about opening Friday as long as the truck can handle it.  There are 5 of us coming and I'm the smallest by about 75 pounds (and I am certainly not small).  We'll make sure to seek you out and say hi.

You're welcome. Now about your suspension system... I got a 1 ton dually you might want to borrow from the sounds of things...

Maybe someone should warn the Subway's along the way that a 'tour bus' will be coming through...??

If it was warmer out, I'd just pull the cattle trailer, but these guys are all whiners.  I wouldn't worry about Subway.  We didn't get this way by eating them healthy subs.  But you might want to warn the steak houses.

DK, I forgot to thank you for the passes last night at the show when I saw you.  I will  try to give them to someone who has not ever been to the show.  However, if I can not do that, what I will do is give them to someone who is walking into the show.  I have done this before and usually try to spot a father/son or family that is headed inside.  Basically what that does is save those people some money as money is tight and allow that person or persons some extra money so that Dad can take Junior over to the trout pond or at least spend that twenty bucks somewhere else at the show.  I have always done that from year to year where I have some extra passes.  It is a great way for families to get interested in our sport and keep kids engaged and interested in our great sport.  We need to grow this sport and especially try to gear it towards families.    8)
