Renassance Festival
I plan on going tomorrow. Am I allowed to carry there? I suppose its out of character for a medieval peasant to pack heat, So I guess I am commended to the 9th circle of nerd hell for being "OOC", but are there any 30.06 posted?

Re: Renassance Festival
Page 3 of the FAQ says no concealed weapons, although that doesn't necessarily mean it will be properly posted.

Re: Renassance Festival
Last year the festival was posted something to the effect that "the king prohibits weapons" so it was not posted properly. I went and carried in my costume

Say hi to the "Free Credit Report -dot- com" guy for me. He'll be playing his guitar because his credit was ruined and playing at the Renaissance Faire was the only job he could get.

Re: Renassance Festival
If you're talking about Scarborough Faire in Waxahachie, it is, indeed, posted 30.06.

Re: Renassance Festival
I believe the OP is referring to the one in Plantersville. I went last weekend, didn't notice any signs but I wasn't looking for them as I'm still am waiting for some news on my application.

Last time I went, back in '91, it was so cold that the belly dancers were wearing wraps and the magicians couldn't do many of their tricks because they were wearing gloves.

Re: Renassance Festival
Just got back from the Renaissance Festival in Plantersville. There is not an 'official' 30.06 sign, but there is a very clear sign at the entrance to the effect of "the King prohibits any concealed weapons" or something similar. It then goes on to talk about various knives. It doesn't mention firearms specifically.ammo two wrote:I believe the OP is referring to the one in Plantersville.

Re: Renassance Festival
I hope they don't post an official sign because of people asking and god forbid someone correcting them that there sign isn't legal.
