My wife and I went there for a performance Saturday. I did look up their website before we went and it did say that it is ok as long as you have a CCW.
Got there, there was metal detectors. Went through it went off told them I have a CCW. Told me to show it to the police officer there. She looked at it for a few seconds. Said have a good night and thank you.
Even joked about my CCW picture. (they way they put it on the card it looks like i have a black eye)
Officer even said it's good I am carrying the parking lot is not very well lite and dark.
Was a very good interaction and encouraging a place like that is ok with it.
Seems like other places that host performances are not carry friendly.

Good to know.
Usually, if there's a metal detector present, I'll get with security before (intentionally) setting it off.
Last time that happened was at the South Florida Fairgrounds.
When I got to the detectors, rather than walking through them, I stepped aside and just handed my CCW to the officer present.
He asked if I was carrying. I said yes, he called in my CCW # on the radio, and then waived me through.
No problem. Very professional.

Good to know. I've been at a fair when shots rang out but I was not carrying. I was considerably younger and didn't think much about it. Now I carry everywhere.
