I know per the IC that you can not carry on a riverboat and the Horseshoe Casino (Hammond, IN) IS a riverboat casino. However does the IC also apply to the structure that is attached to the actual riverboat?
Say you are going to have dinner at the resturant located in the building where the roverboat docks. You are not going into the actual riverboat structure (ie. where the gambling is at) but just the building structure. Can you carry there legally? CC I would presume as I'm sure the casino (biz itself) may have policies against guns period.
