    I've only OC'd in State College a couple times, but I haven't had any issues. Haven't tried just walking through downtown, but I've been in Sheetz a few times, and a couple restaurants around town. Only person to even say anything was a guy I sorta know (we see each other every about often enough to remember each other's names) and he was just asking when I got it, as it was the first time he'd seen me carry. (The other times he's seen me I was CC'ing)

    I've seen someone who was open carrying in a movie theater. The movie was 300 and it was I think the first day it came out. theater was packed and there he was with a pistol on his belt. I'd be worried someone would steal it in that situation.

    I've been OCing around SC for a few months. The only time anyone even noticed, I wondered into the Sheetz on N. Atherton around 03:00 with the P-11 strapped to my hip, and stumbled across the LEO coffee club.
    Patton, Ferguson and SC Borough were all gathered around the soda fountain. I walked up to the counter, got my smokes, and as I turned to leave 2 of them nodded and smiled. I'm not sure if they ever noticed I was OCing, or if they were just being polite.

    Hah, it sounds like I need to open it up when I go to get my morning Shmiscuit!

    I've been in State College since 1994 and can't say I've ever seen anyone OC.

    I've lived in State College my whole life and have never seen anyone OCing. Only time I OC here is while I'm out at scotia, but that doesn't really count.
