30.06 Sign at Dr Pepper Frisco Arena - City Owned

[ScottDLS]

A "friend" was taking his daughter to a (non-scholastic) amateur cheerleading competition today at the city owned Dr Pepper Stars Frisco Arena. Being a fellow CHL, he noticed a compliant 30.06 sign posted prominently at a number of the entrances. However also being aware that 30.06 does not apply on government owned premises, he carried anyway. They were checking bags for outside food, but not wanding.

What I was wondering is, should I encourage him to report this sign to the Texas AG IAW SB 273, or does the fact the the arena sometimes hold professional and scholastic events allow them to post permanently?

Should my "friend" be worried about taking the ride? He's heard Collin County is not CHL friendly.

Collin County not friendly? Please elaborate, as I'm not aware of it.

They continue to post many of their public buildings even though they are not off limits to CHL...at least so I heard.

Neither am I. I personally have friends in the McKinney and Frisco PD and without exception they encourage concealed carry by citizens. I have yet to hear of any educational plans by either department on their intent to inform the public of the new open carry laws however I have been working with my city councilman in McKinney to start a conversation with the other council members on the possibility of having a town meeting.

I wonder if Frisco PD has any thoughts on my friend's dilemma above

They were checking bags for outside food,

If this is a serious question, they don't want you bringing your own food into the arena/complex: they want you to buy their food.

They want you to buy the food from the arena vendors, and presumably don't want a bottle of Jack Daniels slipping through

<...> and presumably don't want a bottle of Jack Daniels slipping through

That's what the plastic energy shot bottles are for :)

Sporting events and school events are already off-limits by statute, and don't require posting at all.

Was the competition a school sponsored event?

Professional sporting events and school sponsored events are off limits. The event that my friend attended was a non-school related amateur cheer competition sponsored by NCA.

Carry on then. I would also report any and all postings on government owned buildings.

YES! this is a serious question. I never heard of such a thing. Of course I'm 76 and don't go as much as I used to. However in the last 5 years I have gone to CO twice, UT once and Smokey mountains once. If I EVER go anywhere and they check me for food, they will get that ticket back and I WILL get a refund, unless of course I was advised when ticket was bought, in which case I wouldn't have bought it.
