No sir. I was able to experiment with a friends (vholdr) and found I got better "aim" and sound
(using a small lapel mike) with a unit that looks very similar in size etc to a cell phone. Drop it
in a shirt pocket and off I go.
Almost got one of those, but was looking for a helmet cam specifically.

Mine would be kind of obvious going through the checkpoint, but I might have my wife wear it behind me.

I would also wear a separate voice recorder so that I could get good audio of any confrontation, including my request, as someone suggested above, for identifying information to write down, and they get the same reason back as they give for recording mine.

the State Fair of Texas Corp / Board. Although the way the policy is enforced, or not enforced, at the various
gates, has in the past had no continuity from one entrance to the next. It was/ is strictly "luck of the draw" on
whether you were outed ,waved in, refused admittance etc.
Without going into a super long re-cap of my experience...... the bottom line should be.... at the most, show your
CHL to a uniformed DPD or DPS trooper. NO information should be recorded, no "outing" by ignorant gate wanders.
Enter and enjoy the Fair.
I now own a very, very small HD movie camera. I will be recording as I enter ........
If we go this year, I think I will be doing the same. Did you get a VHOLDR?

When asked for clarification the fair officials stated that the Cotton Bowl was off limits to CHL at ALL times per their stated policy. When pressed about the "is" clause in the law, and the quote of same in the policy, they refused to discuss it.
