State Fair Of Texas....

[GhostTX]

What?!? Why did I not know about this!

I guess this means I can carry at the Fair now, yay!

You could always carry at the Fair. It doesn't meet the law definition of "amusement park".

Present your CHL to the workers with the metal detector wands at the gate. They will direct you to the cop by the gate. One year I had to wait for some security bozo to ride up on a moped and write down my CHL info (the neckbeards apparently protest this?). Last year the cop at the gate was sitting in his booth asleep so I didn't bother him and just walked in.

They're not supposed to write down your CHL.

I've been carrying at the fair for as long as I've been old enough to carry a gun. Never had any problems, even on cracka day. I'll be there tomorrow, I usually go a few times a year.

Friend of mine always goes as well CCW and never had an issue.

I might have to go this year...hadn't been in ages.

We used to call it gang day, Dallas brings out mounted police and the gang units. We always closed early and made sure we didn't schedule any women folk to close on that day. Was funny to see the mounties ride into the food pavillion to break up group fights.
And lol @ "putting" the cotton bowl in the hood, south Dallas did not begin life as a ghetto. Hell, Oak cliff used to be an affluent neighborhood.

ROFL I had to say it.

We are putting off going on Saturday because of the foot ball game...I have a short fuse with it comes to ignorate people so I rather save my self the trouble and will go on Sunday...

I always carry there as well, but do not think it is any of their business that I am. I typically just move my pistol behind by belt buckle so when they wand me they just think it is the buckle that set it off. Never had any issue making it through.

I still remember when I was 8 my old man beating the shit out of some SMF that pulled a knife on us in the parking lot trying to rob us...

This will be the first year I've missed since 98.

[CRASH]

I always go for the cars and Fletcher's corn dogs. It's nice to be able to conceal/carry there, too.

I'm sure we'll go some time this year.

The first time we went many years ago, we went on City of Dallas School Day, a Monday I think. Never made that mistake again!

Do they still have the display that says something like "Can you see the snake" and there really is no snake, just a twisted branch off a tree? People stand there forever trying to see the snake? I think it use to be on the side of one of the buildings near the Cotton Bowl.

Out of curiosity I googled both school, I wonder what kind of hell would be raised if we started calling Tech, UT, OU etc historically white univeristies?

Any university that is worth a fuck has been a historically white university.

If I ever see a resume with "Grambling" listed under education, I imagine that I would throw that shit in the trash while laughing at the applicants long, obnoxious and unconventional name.

Lolz @ the kids too scared to go to the fair.
