Deerfield Fair Searches. Is this new policy?

[Oldarmy]

Like the title says, They reserve the right to search your person and belongings. I was going to go to this fair and check it out. Has anyone gone in the past and been searched or is this a new policy? Think I'll pass on this one. I could not find the recent thread with the list of anti places in NH and went back like 12 or 13 pages.

Doesn't say no firearms allowed, so give them a call.

id be willing to bet that the 'search' would be for alcohol if it were to actually happen.

This is like "we reserve the right to hurt shoplifters" - it has absolutely no meaning. Sign or no sign, a business can expel you for any reason (though there are issues regarding refund of admission), but they cannot force you to submit to a search.

I got frisked a couple years ago at Deerfield. I saw the signs on the way in and left it in the truck. A cop who recognized me was sure I must be carrying and searched me assisted by a rookie. I called them Nazis and continued on my way.

3 years in a row, the wife and I have had no problems carrying guns in any function at the Deerfield Fairgrounds.

If Chester tries to pat you down, walk away. There's nothing they can do.

In an outdoor fair? Operated by a private entity, the Deerfield Fair Assn? It ain't the state.

 

[Oldarmy]

Screw em I can get molested closer to home and save the price of admission.

Update : I just got back from the Deerfield fair, I saw no signs and saw no pat downs in the 7 hours I was there.

I will be there this weekend, I am sure I will see the same.

First you have to check who owns the fairgrounds. If they are private property, then they can as they will. Cheshire Fairgrounds here in Swanzey had the same posting, as the saying goes concealed is concealed. I carried this year in an Uncle Mikes fanny pack.

fanny pack=>25% gay
obama=field marshall keitel (which makes michelle the fuhrer, I suppose)
a bit of a digression, apologies!

I am going to take my kids to watch the demolition derby...

It's pretty busy, but it is well managed.

 

[ridleyman]

Okay if you say so, At least I was armed and able to look after my family.

gotta admit, I sometimes wear one hiking so I can carry a Glock 21 instead of my pocket Shield, to protect my family! no gay here (not that there's anything wrong with it!)

Well glad to hear it is not actually being done, may go after all. Love an old timey fair.

It's a pretty good one too. I usually starve myself for a full day before going so I can eat all the junk fair food.

I saw two guys get stopped and hassled once at Topsfield Fair. Folders clipped to pockets was the reason. My 4" folder was deep in my pocket and I just walked right in.

You do? Hows that working out for you?

 

[Lip]

No searches, plus I carried there today.

 

[ChevyGuy91]

No one saw my gun...

Ditto
I was there today

 

[SpeedOften]

I was there... as a few have said, no pat downs or searches... There were also a few people open carrying.

The stands for the demolition derby really filled up early. They were full by 4:30pm for a 5:00pm start.
