[QUOTE="Major 78, post: 141536, member: 28527"] Hey! So I will be going to Repticon in Baltmore, MD on 1/19/19! Was wondering in any other TF'ers will be coming? Does anyone know if there will be any vendors that carry T's? More info here: [URL]http://repticon.com/maryland/baltimore/[/URL] Here's a post I made. If you can't tell, I'm pretty excited.
