I tried the "Vendor Thing" there and was very discouraged

It's a shame the way it's being run, they need help and maybe aren't aware they do. I went the 1st day they were there some 4-5 weeeks back to check it out. I was very hopeful because it's right in the area. Then went back for the next 3 weeks as a vendor, which is where my bubble burst.
I was trying, as most vendors there are, to stick it out, but it was just too much. I hope that things do turn around, I'd love to see it become permenent and successful, but permanant in the state it's in is just merciless.
ALSO, and this was very big with me, there seems to be 2 guys running it, Joe and this other guy. Not sure what the other guy does, but he is decidedly rude. Just no reason for that type of behavior, especially in that atmosphere.
