    Default Phillies Park Group Tour

    I am scheduled to go with a group to the Phillies Park for a behind the scenes tour NOT a game. This is scheduled for a week day, 9AM - 12:00noon. I have been to several Phillies games in the new park but never one of these behind the scenes group tours. You can probably guess my question -- does any know if I should expect to be wanded or have to pass through a metal detector?

    Thanks in advance fr your replys.

    I took the tour two years ago. There was no wand then but am not sure about a metal detector. I wasn't carrying that day. Didn't want to chance it myself. I was afraid if "detected", I would havew to leave it in my car (no safe then) and maybe miss the tour... which was fantastic.
    I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy too carry (unknown author)

    Sometimes they lightly pat people at games. I have never seen them use a wand and there are no metal detectors at the entrances. I highly doubt they would pat someone down for a tour, they don't do it consistently at games.

    Where do you keep your firearm so it isn't detected? I usually go to a few games a year but I've never carried. I really would like to but I'm concerned about having to leave the game, denied entry if it is found.

    I frequent CBP 20+ times a year, and never once have been patted down/wanded.

    Hello all. There is nothing on their website about firearms. I previously asked PAOFA discussion if I should call and ask ,and I bebelive I was correctly advised not to ask if I'm legally carry with a LTC. I too would be concerned to have to leave it in my car with the way Philly is. I'm equally concerned not to have it with me the way Philly is!
