Carry OK into Reliant in Houston?

[SWDoc]

Got tickets to a ball game this Sunday in Reliant Stadium in Houston. Can anyone tell me if concealed carry is OK into the event?

Thanks,

Steve

That's negatory, Steve.

"Handguns and other weapons cannot be carried at schools or on school buses, at polling places, in courts and court offices, at race¬tracks, at secured airport areas, or within 1,000 feet of the premises of a facility carrying out an execution on the day of an execution. The law also specifically prohibits handguns from businesses where alcohol is sold, if more than half of their revenue is from the sale of alcohol for on-premises consumption. Additionally, weapons are prohibited on locations where high school, college or professional sporting events are taking place. Furthermore, you may not carry handguns in hospitals or nursing homes, amusement parks, places of worship or at government meetings, if signs are posted prohibiting them. Businesses also may post signs prohibiting handguns on their premises based on criminal trespass laws."

No, see section 46.035. It would be wise to familiarize yourself with laws concerning TX CHL available here:

As a CHL holder I hope you already have a copy. It will keep you out of serious trouble.

P.S. Beat me to it Doc540

Got the book. Thought it was prohibited. Quickest way to get the citations was to post, and I appreciate the quick responses. Was not 100% sure about pro sporting events.

Thanks again,

Steve
