The family is planning a trip to Six Flags in Arlington tomorrow and I was wondering if it is posted as per 30.06.

Yep, with a sign about 4 feet tall.

Edit; SF is open in December?

[BoneDigger]

Yes, they actually have a holiday area setup this time of year (according to their website). They close January and February and open back up in March.

Thanks for the information about Six Flags and their 30.06 posting. I guess the gun will have to stay in the trunk...

Anybody know haw far it is from Six Flags to Bass Pro Shops? Or, a good route to take to get there?

Which Bass Pro? In Grapevine follow this;



360 north to 121, then 121 north to Bass Pro Drive. Exit and go left on Bass Pro.

I thought it was off limits simply for being an amusement park...

It was originally, but the law was changed (in 2005?) so that amusement parks have to post 30.06.

Specifically, the change Jim mentioned is at §46.035(i)

(i) Subsections (b)(4), (b)(5), (b)(6), and (c) do not apply
if the actor was not given effective notice under Section 30.06.

I see that now...maybe if I had read a bit further I would have seen that before posting. Thanks for clarifying.
