I have been showing in North Alabama and South TN for 2 years now. I have never been asked to pay a cent and never been told I could not show. In fact I have always been meet with enthusiasm and appreciation for showing up and adding to the show. I guess folks around here figure if you spend all the time and money to restore a tractor and haul it to a show then the least they can do is not charge you anything and appreciate you.
Usually most shows have door prizes or other treats. One show I went to I won $200 cash and got 2 nice wood plaques for my 2 tractors I brought. Most of the shows have a few competitors and ribbons or trophies they give to the winning participants but little to no judging.
I plan to attend at least 10-15 shows this year, I probably made about 12 last year and about 10 the year before.
If I go to a show and they ask for money from me I will promptly leave and make sure I never go back near there again, plus I will be very angry about the wasted time and diesel fuel I spent on them.
The biggest problem I have with shows is not knowing about them, seems that the tractor show community is internet and computer inept, communications are very limited, even the club show lists are different from club to club and incomplete.
I will try and see if I can get a pic of my excel local tractor show sheet to post up;
