As of Tonight they still heve the 51% signs up, they are improper, Terre Albert is at fault for this. He is the Manager for TRF, he came to us from SHRP( where its illegal to have firearm anyway). As Far as complaints being registered the people there wouldn't know what signage and TABC won't advise them of the 30:06. but so far no one has done a thing the signs are still there

TRF does not make 51% from on premise sales, and they do not make the prices of clothing or anything else that comes from the shops, the vendors do, the make a percentage from the gross sales of items from the shops. and the percentage is why they aren't 51%, if they didn't make that percentage then they would be 51%, TRF ownes all the beer boothes and both the "bars" within TRF, the food shops are vendors. TABC only considers the 2 bars as 51%

Sections 11.61(e) and 61.71(f) of the Alcoholic Beverage Code

An offense still occurs if the concealed handgun licensee is on the premises of a business that has a mixed beverage permit, a private club registration permit, a wine and beer retailer’s permit or a beer retailer’s on-premise license if the business derives 51 percent or more of its income from the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premise consumption.


Scarborough is listed as a PRIVATE Club

nope it doesn't. all of scarborough is the club not premises as defined in the CHL law, all ya gotta do is look it up on the tabc website the whole festival is off limits to a carrying CHL

yes Scarborough Ren Faire is posted, the faire is in a dry county so therefore to be able to consume adult beverages it falls under the laws as a private club that makes 51% from onsite consumption. I have several club stickers on my camera case so I can have a brew or 2. Also it is in the TABC Database as a 51% location

Great if they unposted it!

DA, Iv've been going to TRF for a number of years, bout 10 I think and have NEVER seen a 30:06 sign at TRF not even year before last and I attended 3 weekends that year. The only thing I have ever seen is the King's rules and , umm that ain't no 30:06 legal sign so umm, nope doesn't apply to me thanx, also TRF is Listed in the TABC Database as BLUE. OH YEA talked to Terry, said the no guns thing is well ummm shhhhhh don't ask don't tell, leave it at that mmmmmkay

Divided Attention wrote:Last time we went it was 30.06 posted on ye olde gate post in a HUGE sign

and when did you go?, it hasn't been posted this year at all, just the old no firearms signage

yes you may carry a flintlock pistol, remove the flint, no powder and yep you can have it, wou might even be able to have the flint but lots of guys carry them in pirate garb, technically if I'm not mistaken its considered a non weapon as it is a curio, but hey I could be slowing smoke
