My first time going, was ready to roll out by 4:30AM, and got there by 6:30AM. It was a brisk 47 degrees by then. Waited in line until 8AM, then they let us in. Walked around constantly from 8AM until 1PM. Ran into a few people I knew, and picked up quite a few freebies. My arm is sore from carrying them all.
If you're looking for "the good stuff" and you're going tomorrow, let me suggest the highlights of what I picked up:
1) Kubota.
-They were giving out free mouse pads!
2) Kruger Seeds.
-They had free bags that were like thin canvas with sewn on straps!
3) O'Reilly Auto Parts
-They were giving out free mini pocket knives!
4) Grave Digger
-Dustin Brown (crew chief) was signing post-card sized pictures and you could get an up close view of the truck they had there!
I didn't go for the free stuff though (I had no idea there'd be so much of it), but to check out the GPS guidance stuff and precision planting stuff I used to work with. It is all quite fascinating and out of the price range of any farmers I know, including my own family.
Still, it's always great to see where it all is heading. Also stopped by some of the welding tents to see the latest and greatest. For a first experience, I was quite pleased with it - think I'll go again in 2011. Also, the Versatile lot has the most impressive "big tractors" there this year, IMO.

In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
