NCAA, Gainbridge Fieldhouse and concealed carry?

[dsol]

I should have asked this a while ago but wife and I are headed up to Indy to watch Purdue (hopefully win) their first and second round games. Does anyone know if they will have metal detectors at Gainbridge Fieldhouse? I don't plan on packing a 1911 or 44 mag in, but would sure like to have a little 380 in my back pocket for the walk to and from parking and not have to leave anything like that in the car.

Thanks!

You need to call Rent a Cop for your protection to and from the parking lot.

They wand everyone down…park in the garage across the street is the best option….no knife also.

Anything of value in trunk…out of site!

I've been thinking about situations like that but with SUVs. They dont have trunks and also most everything i see today, there is easy access to trunk/cargo areas from inside the car. I had thoughts of pulling the rear seat up in my hyundai Kona and putting my sidearm under it. Rear seat isn't made to pull up like certain automobiles do. If someone broke in, i don't think they'd be digging under the back seat for loose change.

Engine compartment is a option also..

Full on walk through metal detectors at every entrance.

Probably unpopular here, but for true GFZs I started carrying a second wallet. Give them what they think they want and send them on their way.

Ditto. A few ones and a fiver and some old plastic cards which have no revealing ID on them.

Looking through this now. Comic-con is also going on downtown. My wife is going to take her brother to it. Does anyone know if they will have metal detectors at the convention center?
