I don't think that any convention in at least the last 15 years had to even think about this. But, the current economic climate is defintely making convention planning more difficult. I think that if that really happened, there might be some avenues through the IAGSDC or AJH. But I don't think anyone even wants to think about having to do that.
For Cleveland, we had no choice but to entertain this discussion. And I don't think we really had a good answer. I think what we did do was plan on having all bills paid/allocated prior to dong a bill settlement with the hotel. There were a few items open on the table based on activity during the convention. So, I think we were going to just say....this is all that is there.....Then I think it would be up to the laws of the state the convention is incorporated in.
Luckily, we didn't have to go down that road. And I hope that DC doesn't either. And I am sure that they won't.
