  FUN: WHY THE REMOTE NORTH CONCOURSE LOCATION?
  

  Last week Alan Weinberg theorized that one reason for the spate of
  robberies of dealers leaving the FUN show is the show's location at
  the North Concourse. Another subscriber writes: "Although the FUN
  show is probably now the largest event of its kind in the world, the
  Orange County Convention Center treats FUN in a very condescending
  manner. The OCCC has two buildings with 1.1 million square feet each.
  The newer building where the FUN show is held has four main exhibition
  halls, each having 275,000 square feet. FUN only uses about 180,000-
  200,000 square feet. Because FUN can't even fill one of these halls,
  the OCCC people have adopted a 'take it or leave it' attitude with FUN.
  

  "The Northeast hall is the hardest to rent because it is the furthest
  from the hotels and other amenities. The OCCC is mainly interested in
  attracting huge conventions that require 500,000 to 2.2 million square
  feet. I believe the OCCC is one of only three places in the country
  that can host shows requiring 2 million square feet. The others are
  McCormack Place in Chicago and Las Vegas."
