    There are some deals to be had especially on the last day. Get there early as it will be well attended. Have fun and be safe.

    Had three kids at lay lake classic and all three came away with big bags. Guntersville not so much but it was a tough economy then.

    Have been to most Classics since 1988. LOTS of free stuff....baits, etc. early on. Jokes with friends was a challenge to see which display would give me a new boat. Didn't happen...LOL! The freebees gradually tapered off. Last one we attended was in the last Greensville one...Good show, but not much in the way of free stuff...

    I got a lot of free stuff last time at Greenville. Hats, coozies, tackle, sunglasses, stickers etc. Good deals on rods. Some of the stuff sold out so don't wait.

    That was all free stuff given out at booths except for the hoodie and the quantum reel. The hoodie was pro’s only but I conned a carharrt rep into finding and shipping me one. the quantum reel I won as part of the KVD contest where you went to select booths and checked in. I only spent the first day at the expo but was there most of the day. It takes a day or two to actually see everything. This was at the last classic on hartwell

    Very impressive. I'll be happy with a new Skeeter hat (I lose at least one every year due to high speeds and failure to remove the hat) and maybe some line.

    When it’s been in Tulsa my son gets a ton of free stuff, and yes stuff is usually a little bit cheaper I’ve never been on the last day though. It is a lot of fun the expo the weigh in just make sure you have nothing to do the day you go.

    Do you need to get to the weigh-in early to get a seat?

    No, but longer you wait higher you sit.
