Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs Metal Detectors
Planning on going to a Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs game and just wanted to know if anyone has been there recently? Do they have metal detectors/pat downs?

Re: Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs Metal Detectors
Just to give others a more recent update. I attended an Iron Pigs game on 8/7/2017 and there are no metal detectors set up.

Re: Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs Metal Detectors
Affirmative. Just went last night and still no metal detectors. Unless they’re automated and not visible.

Re: Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs Metal Detectors
I'm going to speak with an attorney this week, but figured I'd ask here if anybody knew.
I came across some website that had list of places where concealed carry is not allowed even with LTCF, and it included public places where large crowds gather like sports arenas. I don't ever remember hearing that before in any seminar or training class.
In Coca Cola Park, I didn't see any signs posted, but I did call the stadium last season and the operator said firearms are prohibited.
So is it legal to carry there?

As I understand it...
If it's a private business, and you have a gun, and they prohibit guns, and someone in a position of authority recognizes you have a gun, all they can do is ask you to leave. If this is the case, plead ignorance, and immediately comply. You will likely be fine.
If it's a government or federal building, and you have a gun, they prohibit guns,, you get caught, then you can face charges.
Costco prohibits guns unless you're law enforcement. I carry a gun in costco every time. They do not have metal detectors. It has not been a problem.
Local court house prohibits guns unless you're law enforcement. I never carry a gun in the local court house. They do have metal detectors. It has not been a problem.

Re: Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs Metal Detectors
Here's what I'm a bit worried about. In order for a shooting to be considered justifiable use of deadly force, one of the things that must be satisfied is that you are at a place where you can legally carry. So if you shoot somebody in Costco, can you have a problem? Even if it's clearly self-defense, but because carry is not allowed there, you would carrying where you are not allowed to carry and the shooting could be deemed unjustified? I'm asking, not telling.

Re: Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs Metal Detectors
That is a valid concern. But the question is not where you are allowed to carry, but rather where you are legally allowed to carry. As far as I know, company policy doesn't justify legality, but federal buildings, elementary schools, etc do justify it being illegal carry.
I'm not telling, I'm asking. Has this come up before in a legal battle?
