(...) As a side note: "I spent $26 CDN to spend about 2 hours at the LEGO show. Maybe next time LEGO will pick a more reasonable place to have a cool event."

I've been trying to attend this show for the last 8 years or so and still haven't made it there yet. :-( There always seems to be something else that comes up that weekend that needs to be taken care of.
