At first glance, while entering the establishment everything appeared "OK"
-No 30.06
No 51% Sign in view.

Had lunch...Wonderful Food, overall good experience....

THEN..as we we exiting (different doors that you enter through) we saw it ... 51%

After going home and doing a little research on TABC's website, it is listed as a BLUE gun sign.

Yet another example of a location improperly posting TABC signage...

Well, you notify the manager that they have the wrong sign, or you can notify TABC and they will correct the issue.
If you leave it alone, then you are hurting all other CHLs who happen to see the sign as they enter and have to go disarm.

I have notified TABC, but have little faith that anything will happen. TABC was also notified (more than a year ago) of Billy Bob's Texas being improperly posted as a 51% location, and to date, nothing has changed.

The wheels of Bureaucracy turn slow (if they turn at all)

Hmm, sorry to hear that.
The one time I contacted TABC, they reacted within about 2 weeks.

There was another post recently about someone doing that also, and they also responded very quickly.

Hopefully they will respond in this matter as quickly.

Billy Bob's isn't 51%? I honestly don't see how. . .

I also would have assumed Billy Bob's to be 51%.

Ticket, food and souvenier sales are also calcualted into it. And, you would be suprised at how many people don't drink alcohol, but drink water or soft drinks when there.

I guess. . . but it seems like the stumbling, vomiting, and fighting patrons drink enough to make up for all of that. Glad to be wrong!

Hopefully Toby Keith will make enough money from his restaurant that he won't have to make anymore terrible "music".

Seem to remember him supporting a certain presidential candidate in 2007/8 that kind of disappointed me. Hopefully it won't happen again. Been reluctant to support his establishments/music ever since.
