Re: A disappointing State Fair episode 10-1-09
Went to the fair on Friday after reading this thread. Despite my reservations of having to fill out my info, I decided to go ahead and carry. Told my girlfriend about it and that I may have to take care of a few things before going in. Rode the DART in (first time to carry on a train) and headed to the front gate. I noticed the "security" was not very thorough with their wanding. I decided I'd go on through and only present my CHL if asked. I'm right handed, so I picked a "wander" who seemed to only be favoring the left side. Sure enough, she never wanded my right hip. The blackberry in my left pocket set off the detector. As soon as she saw what it was I was allowed to go through. I was never once asked if I was carrying a concealed weapon. Given the incompetence of the security there, I know I made the right choice to carry. Who knows how many non-CHL holders were also carrying in there.
