I have a feeling that might not be the case in Salt Lake City.
IME, LAS tradeshows have better attendance (and more actual $$ written) then the trade shows we do in ATL, MDW/ORD, SAT, LAX, MIA and NYC. Although the ones at MCO come close.

However IMO, no trade show should be in LAS more then 5 days (we have one that is 6) and no show should ever open before 10:30 am.
