Can't say as I blame sponsors for not having booths. Quite frankly the chorus line always goes like this... "I was stuck in my booth, the person I wanted to see was stuck in their booth, by the time we finally got to see each other it was too (crowded, loud, rowdy, late, insert whatever you like here) to really get anything done. So we set up a meeting for the next day and then someone didn't show up to my booth, so I was stuck at my booth, and someone didn't show up to their booth... "

Need I go on?

I've always been lucky in my situation, in that I've never been stuck in a booth. It wasn't my lot in life. Thus I never had to slit my wrists on the show floor and laugh while the blood ran out.

Booths make good meet-up places, but that's about it, really. You can't get a private conversation in unless you have a space upstairs, inside, etc, and those booths are quite expensive.

If not having that added expense of hauling around an overpriced booth and staffing it with people all day is spoiled, then spoil me all the more.
