Different location, different attitude. No oil patch nor construction to give non-college educated kids big bucks. For here I would not blame it on the women in most cases. I would say most women if the guy is not spending money on them are happy that the guy is not drinking or drugging his paycheck away. Then there is the often associated DWI/DUI and cheating that go with the previous two. Quite a few guys I know the girlfriend/wife is often at the show. If she did not want to be at the tractor show she would have never hooked up with such a guy to start with.
I am not a parade guy, either. But the shows for me are about interaction with people and not looking at the same tractors year after year. And sometimes that is checking out the attractive female sister or cousin of somebody bringing a tractor (when I was single).
Again, I would point out that nobody can hope to recruit somebody who has no interest in agriculture, antigues, etc.. I make my observations based on people who I have talked to who would have some interest if certain problems could be overcome. My best friend is one such person and nobody in his recollection of his family farmed at least here in the US. Also, I would say if one collects one does not have to take a collection to a show.
