Most of those guys were models/eye candy brought by producers/ site owners.
Myself, I have brought models and staff to the show, but it just became cost prohibitive to continue doing so, in light of the diminishing returns. I have a hard time swallowing the need to pay for show floor passes for talent, who have no business on the show floor in the first place (last year's situation).

IA2000 used to offer significant opportunities for all levels of the industry; education, inspiration, motivation and networking. Now it is merely a shadow of it's former glory....
