Went to HLSR tonight to an open bar party and the livestock show, stayed out of the rodeo. No problem carrying onto the grounds.

No wands, no metal detectors but no carry into the stadium for the rodeo.

Main concern is carrying where there is such a large mix of drunks and LEOs. If something went down with such a large crowd, there is too much risk with me being ID'd as a perp for having a weapon exposed or worse not hitting my target in the gawd-awful case that I needed to let fly. LEOs do a good job of maintaining order at HLSR.

I carried because I still had to travel to and from the site. Again, I don't feel the need to carry while on the premise, just off grounds. My compromise was taking the LCP instead of the double stack hi cap. Plus, with all the hugging and pats on the back at the party I thought pocket carry was best.
