    Just some FYI in case anyone cares.
    I may try to go just to look around. I'm told the prices are so outrageous at these shows nowdays that it just doesn't pay to spend any money there. But you just never know what you might see on the back of the attendees.
    There's a big bingo joint (or some type of hall) at the end of the main drag away from interstate, less than a mile past the train tracks and on the left.
    Cheers

    If it's the one at the Lion's Club off 22 then don't waste you time. Seriously. I went the last two times and I kick myself every time for giving them my money to get in. You can be in and out in about 7 minutes and see all there is in there. Most of it is trinkets and jerky. The rest is overpriced ammo and crap guns.

    If it's the one at the Ponchatoula Rec center then it's worth going.

    Looking to get my son out of the house Saturday a day thought a gun show would be perfect.
    A quick search for location revealed this show has been cancelled. I hope it's not but can anyone confirm this?

    I would agree...don't even bother. I went to the last one there early this summer to look around and meet some folks around the area, as well as hand out some cards for our new gunsmith shop. I asked the police officer at the front where I could put up a flyer or 2. He brought me to a guy that seemed from New York...told me unless I paid for a table I cant even hand out a ink pen. I said thank you and left.

    Just heard from a friend that there are supposedly 2 gun shows scheduled in Ponchatoula this weekend. One at the Bingo hall and one at the VFW hall. One of these locations may be the Lions club. Planning on going before noon today do I'll post up some factual up to date info for any interested.

    At least 1 sign was still up this morning but the show was cancelled.
    Let me start the conspiracy theory - I heard Hillary pulled the plug on the show, something about "white privilege"?
    Rec center show is in 2 weeks.
