All cleared up and thank you.

We have all been there - and it was patient people that helped us as well.

The reason that looking at the TABC license is important (and hence that Sign=Blue or Sign=Red thing) is that it is the TABC ruling that is important. Not the 51% sign. If a place without a TABC license or a TABC license that says Sign=Blue posts a 51% sign, then it is meaningless. Just like a place that has a TABC license with Sign=Red is off limits regardless of the presence of a 51% sign. So be sure to check the TABC license if you have any doubts. That is the controlling thing.

The controlling point is the TABC license. If TABC calls them a 51% place then they are - but that is NOT determined by those signs. Those signs are helpful, but they are not the requirement. Check the TABC license and if it says =Red, then it is a 51% place and you need to leave. If it says =Blue, then it is not a 51% place and the signs are meaningless to you.

But you might want to let TABC know that they have the wrong signs posted.
