If you are at a restaurant and they have a 51% sign up then you are either eating really cheap food or the liquor is very expensive. Most restaurants make a good amount of money off the liquor but not enough to break 51%. What I was told by my CHL instructor was that if you go into the restaurant and eat at a table you are fine, but if you go sit at the bar or table and start to drink then that is bad.newbie06 wrote:2. Most places don't have a clue as to how to post a 30.06 or 51%. I can't begin to tell you how many times I actually walked into a place armed because they did not have the sign posted at the front door. This mainly happened in restaurants. They had the sign posted in the back at the little bar, but not at the front door. What good is that? How am I supposed to know that the 51% rule applies here, for not every restaurant with a bar will post a sign.
The Palace Lane bowling ally in West University (a small city within Houston) has a blue "unlawful possession of a firearm" sign at the door but then has a 51% sign at the bar. I assume that the bowling ally is fine but the bar is off limits. Of course it is very hard to bowl with a 45 strapped to your side.
