Yep, that is correct. These guys are out there working long before any of the attendees arrive. And I can tell you they will still be hard at in Monday putting the finishing touches on everything. I'll be over there taking photos, talking to the builders and getting more info for the blog. You will be getting a sneak preview of what is going on behind the scenes - providing I do have problems with the security staff. I was removed from the floor in NOLA until my buddy Tommy took care of getting me the proper credentials. Never a dull moment around me.
