I kinda wish Internext and AVN were still separate shows because I have super different goals at each. I feel particularly nostalgic for the years things were at the Venetian. I think my favorite year might have been when it was BondCon, Internext, AVN all in a row.
Why did those shows stop being at the Venetian, anyone know?

Theo bought the AVN and decided that it was simply too expensive to continue to run it in conjunction with CES.
We had a lot of people complain about the costs of rooms during CES.
So he moved the show away from CES and away from the Venetian.
Rooms were much less expensive on a different weekend and at a different venue.
Now rooms are just expensive everywhere and every weekend.
