Not saying I agree with the way they handle it - but it is right on their home page for the shows in Fla

Your right, we checked in the night after the first day of the show and they let us in the hotel. I didn't get my badge until the following morning.
I agree with you that I should have read the fine print on their site. But since I had gone to just about every single show since the 90's before it was called IA200 then Internext - when it was mainly audio text back then.
I thought someone would have a least cut me a litle bit of slack and let me at least check out of the hotel so I could have gotten another room somewhere else. My wife didn't do anything except sleep in the room and visit with friends that lived in Florida.
They should have a least offered a discounted price for spouses that would restrict them from attending certain events etc...
The thing that upset me the most was their total lack of respect. Secondly we got there one day after the show had started so the following day when this happened, there was only 1 day left for the convention.
