This long recession has overturned the adage that booze and sex are recession-proof, and it was very apparent at this year’s AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas. Fan attendance at the 11th expo was down between 10% and 20% from a year, and there were 267 exhibitors this year, an 11% drop from 2009. That’s not too bad, considering how rough the downturn has been, according to expo spokesman Sean Devlin. “Given the economy, given where every other trade show is now, we feel pretty good,” Devlin told LasVegasWeekly.com. “We did have a number of exhibitors who . . . took smaller booths and brought fewer people.
