in texas you can't carry to a sports events so you need to check your local laws and find out if its legal to start with
Below is what I found from their website ---Since Colorado Law Requires every person to be ran through a metal detector for you to be breaking the law all you would be doing would be trespassing if they were to catch you. The Firearms section holds no weight in Colorado, see previous sentence. While on their website I also found the "safety and security" section and added it because it could be useful. Have fun at the game.

i just go with ....no firearms will be one of them
as i've noticed about others--that they do not always do as i think they will nor often as they say they will.
this not only makes life interesting, it makes it dangerous too.
For Sale 1985 Toyota Supra. one owner, 82K, will pass inspection, only needs some body/rust patching
Thanks Hi-Altitude. Looking forward to the game.

I was there last season was surprised when they wanded me. They did it very quickly, under the arms, down the sides and over my cargo pockets. Missed the Smartcarry.
I go once or twice a year and I think they ran the wand over me once in the last five years. Not sure what they do, just ask you to leave. Go put your gun in the car and come back? Take a few minutes if you rode the lite rail in from the outter areas.
I always lock mine in a COM car safe so at least I have it when I get back to the car.
