It was packed. The vendor located at the front right as you entered had good prices but was firm. No room to haggle.

I know there was a30.06 at the entrance form a post in another thread. Were there LEO's inside questioning patrons as they entered regarding carrying weapons?

No. Just one at the entrance checking weapons people were carrying in.

Im sure some do carry every gun show, even against the 30.06 sign.

I havent, as I do not want to be a test case for the legality of posting a government building, but again, concealed is concealed - so if someone does, I hope they dont get caught!
I think it is worth mentioning that last weekend at the Gun Show at George R Brown, they did NOT post the normal (or any) 30.06 signs - at least on Saturday

I don't think I've seen 30.06 at the GRB shows but I haven't been there in a while. Pasadena Convention Center being city owned is improperly posted. I haven't been in a while but the last time I went I was confronted by an off duty PPD officer totally ignorant of 30.06 and arrogant to boot. Like you I don't want to be the test case. Being retired I have the time but not the funds.
