Why are you disappointed? What would you expect it to be? I'm curious.

The main difference is that in Houston it's all in one space, which is helpful, and the other access options I mentioned. Maybe it's a bit bigger. But Paducah has a lot to offer (well, at least at the old location) - which had a lovely small town feel with a nice waterfront section.

I actually stayed in Metropolis a few times. It was a really, really quick drive over the bridge. I didn't feel like I was "commuting" to the show at all.
I expected it to be bigger. Isn't everything in Texas bigger?--LOL. All under 1 roof would make it much easier to see everything, though so even if it isn't bigger--that would make it better.

I like Paducah and since I live within a 3 hour drive, I consider myself lucky.
