Hooters signage ?
Went to Hooters (restaurant) for the good food I have heard about (( Seriously ))
The inner door, I noticed two signs, One saying No Guns allowed and the other, something about No lic. in possession of ....
(( I did honor their request and returned to my vehicle and locked up the pistol )) Never saw a 51 % sign.
Talking with the Manager about his signage, I could tell he was not sure how it implied or what he was to do.
He remarked, this was a restaurant and he thought that only Police officers were O.K. to carry ... ?
Once, he saw a guy in plain clothes carrying and it kinda bothered him, THEN, he noticed the badge next to the pistol !
He thinks that only Cops can carry in his restaurant.

Re: Hooters signage ?
The Hooters restaurant at the River Center Mall on the Riverwalk in downtown San Antonio had the standard TABC signed (unlicensed possession of a concealed weapon is a felony ...) so carrying with a CHL was fine.

Re: Hooters signage ?
I'll ignore the food and go back to the topic at hand...
If it's not a legal 30.06 sign, I simply ignore them and walk right past.

Re: Hooters signage ?
Those signs did not apply to you. they were for the UNlicensed possesion; which is a sign they must post if they sell alcohol.
whatever their manager said was his opinion.
Hooters, et al, is not a 51% establishment, so you're good to go.

FWIW, IIRC, AFAIK, FTMP, IANAL. YMMV.
Re: Hooters signage ?
The signs are there to indicate that the establishment qualifies as a place where the crime of carrying a handgun without a license is a felony rather than a misdemeanor.

Simply discussing it with him could be interpeted as giving a 30.06 verbal..45mac.40 wrote:

These places must come real close to 51% .. they serve only snacks and appetizers for food, and serve large quantities of beer. Not that I would ever go to such a place!! I wouldn't be surprised to discover some are 51%ers

Re: Hooters signage ?
Never have seen a 51% sign at a Hooters--sometimes "no guns" and others "unlicensed posession..."
Maybe people ARE going there for the food, if total revenue for liquor is under 51%
