Thanks for the clarification. I knew about the handbook (but in my mind I was thinking employee handbook, so I left it out of this example). This is the first I'd heard about the admission ticket example.

snipr, Welcome to the forum. I'm still quite the newbie here myself, and I'll defer to the wiser ones as to all the legal stuff, but please let me share with you some of what I've learned by lurking here for over a year:

We can't carry if the property owner (or a proper representative, such as (but not limited to) a manager at the location) has asked us not to carry. We have not broken the law until they ask us, but once they have, we have to comply. Non compliance is breaking the law.

There are only two ways to ask us: (a) verbally, and (b) with a properly displayed 30.06 sign.

With regards to discussing the sign with the property owner - the general consensus on here is that we NEVER do so. We take the time and $$ to learn the legal ins-and-outs of when we can and cannot carry. If they want to block us, that is their right, but it's not up to us to educate them on how to do it properly - if they've done it wrong. We are comfortable knowing we've taken the steps to protect ourselves and our families, and they are comfortable thinking that we aren't carrying. Let them live in their dreamworld, and we'll carry on doing what we do. We keep concealed, as required by law, and they'll never know that their improper signage has had no effect on those of us who have been properly trained.

Now, there are other ways to let us know we can't carry (e.g. 51% signs), but I'm only trying to cover the 'they just don't want me to carry here' topic. I'll leave the rest for another discussion.

Again, welcome to the forum from another newbie. Keep reading...these guys and ladies will teach us a lot!
