Going on the stockyards ride from Grapevine. Does anyone have solid info if we can legally carry or not? My info research isn’t producing anything confirming yes or no.

Texas3006.com says it is properly posted, but City owned so it would be an invalid posting. I would just remember the old saying, “concealed is concealed.”

Agree with Carl, but would also like to add another saying. Test Case.

i looked into it as well. we were going to the stock yards then over to attt stadium.
the stock yards street areas are carry as you wish, but the arenas were posted on the website as no carry
but i found conflicting information for both.
atts policy on PODS for tickets and mask mandates pretty much curtailed the visit.

For ATT stadium I tried to be the "test case" in 2016 for a non-scholastic, no pro sporting event. Here's the short version. The posting is invalid because the building is city owned. Most events have metal detectors and wands and private security will refuse entry. Wrote to the City of Arlington Attorney and she said 'private organization', we didn't put up the signs. AG Paxton came out with the ruling that signs don't have force of law, but we won't fine the City for the Cowboys posting them.

Reporting back from a day in Grapevine and the Stockyards regarding my posted question. I never saw any 06-07 signs anywhere at the station ticket area, check in area, or boarding area in Grapevine. Same at the Stockyards. No security or checkpoints. Very welcoming and dedicated that you are satisfied staff. Unless I missed something, I’ll give it a pass.

I have never understood why have a law of their is no penalty for violating that law. I am just a C- student so maybe it will never make sense.
