I'm thinking more of people who are now going to have to work this event who are going to have to give up a big family holiday after having likely skipped out on it last year. For people working, the event doesn't begin Friday, it starts days before. I don't imagine many of those working can afford to fly to SD, set up, fly home for Thanksgiving, then fly back for the show. All during the busiest week of travel of the year.

It will be interesting to see how many attendees are from outside of the U.S. At least for them it won't be a holiday. Also people in the region might be able to pull it off.

I doubt there will me much in the way of attendance from across the country. You are abandoning your family on a major holiday that can be celebrated normally after a year of no family gatherings.
