As much as I would like to go, I will be in Oklahoma that weekend.

I wonder if that website would be enough to file a complaint with the AG?
They can legally prohibit both concealed and open carry if they put up the signs since it's a private organization.
It doesn't matter if it's a private organization or not because it's city property. The signs would be unenforceable. It also does not meet the criteria of an amusement park.
Unfortunately, it won't be city property. The State Fair of Texas leases the land every year, effectively making it private property for the duration of the fair.
This was all discussed to length about CC a few years ago and as was found out, as long as the property is owned by the city they cannot prohibit CC. I would suspect it to be the same with OC although I would not OC there. I think this should be turned over to the AG although time is running short to do so.

As for TT's original question, we are planning on going on a Thursday (senior citizens days) when fewer people are there. Set it up for then and we may could meet up.
