51 Rule Question
Hello everyone. I am new to this forum (my first post) and I am presently in the waiting room (processing application) since 1/19. Last night I met a friend for dinner at a local sports bar & GRILL. I do not go out to "bars" very much anymore and especially lately. However, I did not notice the 51 placard or the penal code posted ANYWHERE in the bar or at the front door. So, being new to the chl, I asked the owner if his sales of alcohol were 51% or more. He told me that although they have an extensive food menu, alcohol sales are 80%+. He also told me that he did at one time have the 51 placard posted by the bar but not anymore. He does not know what happened to it . My question is...is it legal to carry concealed? If not, is it my responsibility to ask the personel their %? It is my understanding that it must be posted. However, is my ignorance a defense? P.S. I was not drinking alcohol. Thanx....Mike
