Ever time I go to the courthouse I set the alarm off. Since I refuse to take off the MIA bracelet they wand me down.

I carried my full sized Kimber to the AC/DC concert at the Susquehanna center a few weeks back. They wanded down to my knees, they missed the 1911 strapped to my ankle.........and the extra mag in my other boot. I checked their site, there was no mention of firearms being banned. I just didn't feel like being hassled about it. I made it into the bathroom and moved it to a better position and had no problems the rest of the night.

To the op. The same way I would approach a woman at a bar. Cautiously, smile alot, and prepare for a rapid escape.

All the more reason why I LOVE Hershey Park. They just check bags when you enter. And I love even more is Knoebels, no security what so ever.

What Six Flags location might you be talking about? You are in Northampton county, so you're in the eastern part of PA. The closest Six Flags from there is the one in... NJ. I hope he wasn't carrying there.

That's one brave (or dumb, that's my vote) friend you've got there. Carrying in NJ is just asking for trouble. Getting caught by amusement park staff is just the icing on the cake.
