Hey folks, I moved to Arizona at the end of December and since then have been happily enjoying the state. Most especially the carry laws here.
Today I go to the Harkins Theater in Yuma so I can see a showing of 'Warm Bodies' and I'm OCing just like I always do when I'm not at work or school. I buy my ticket, I go inside, I give my ticket to the lady taking tickets and then I linger in the lobby for a few minutes. I watch a preview playing and I look at the menu for snacks.
While I'm looking at the menu a woman comes up and informs me that they do not allow weapons in their building. She was very polite, and I politely asked for a refund. She gives me my money and I inform her that she doesn't have a sign on her door. (I wouldn't have come in if they had a sign). She tells me that they do, and I say that there wasn't one on the door I came in, she informs me that she will check and I leave.
As I'm leaving now I'm paying super close attention to the door and I notice it, a little vinyl decal in the corner. And I'm thinking to myself how did I miss that coming in?
I walk back to my car and I sit for a few minutes and decide I should go take a picture. So I walk back as I'm approaching the front door I know they have a sign, I know where it is and I still have difficulty seeing it. I like to think I'm a fairly aware person, but if you don't want people carrying a gun into your business at least make it as conspicuous as your no smoking sign.
Overall the encounter was polite and quick, no one was rude to me, I'm just annoyed about their sign. Now I need to call the other theater in town and see if they have a no weapons policy. =\
