Due to the efforts of a couple of our members here 2-3 years ago, Fair Park and the Texas State Fair specifically, has done much better in their efforts to not infringe on our rights and the law. IIRC, no one is wanding or anything like what they do for the state fair in the parking lots to the theater for the musicals or the building itself. I guess they figure it is a very different crowd that attends musicals versus the fair.

Also, either the security guard at the entrance had a keen eye, or I was printing through my suit jacket because he came up and asked if I was carrying. Upon an affirmative reply, he asked to see my license, and after inspection he thanked me and wished me a good night.

You may need to re-evaluate you concealment method. My answer might have been one of two or more possibilities. "No sir. I don't do drugs." or "What? What are you talking about?"

"What is the handgun policy at the Music Hall at Fair Park?

Carrying a Firearm on these premises is prohibited. This includes persons licensed to carry a concealed handgun pursuant to state law. Carrying a firearm on these premises is a Class "A" Misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a $4000.00 fine. TEXAS PENAL CODE, SECTION 30.06; TEXAS PENAL CODE, SECTION 46.035. "

They are either clueless or defiant. These are Fair Park's own rules.

Weapons and sharp metal objects, such as pocket knives, scissors and the like, are not allowed. The State of Texas does allow a person holding a valid concealed handgun license to enter into Fair Park with a concealed handgun. However, during the State Fair of Texas and some other special events, licenses will be examined at the entrance by an authorized security supervisor. In accordance with Texas laws that protect "premises where a high school, collegiate or professional sporting event or interscholastic event is taking place," handguns are never permitted inside the Cotton Bowl.

the Music Hall is within the park and not otherwise prohibited, so carry away. They like to think the the Cotton Bowl is off limits, but only during a game. I don't go there for the game and don't have any interest in going in there anyway, so I'm not worried about it and don't point out their error.
