Yep that is the sign I saw also. I took a picture but never got a chance to post it on here.  These where only posted on the midway at the ticket booths on the North and south side. I would have never seen them if I had not gone up to tickets.

That is is the first thing that I thought of when I saw the sign. I had no clue about the Texas thing though great catch. My big thing was it had the weapons prohibited. They had several officers patrolling the midway and I didn't want to ruin the evening with some crazy mom getting me arrested if my shift some how got pulled up picking up one of my kids.

I, too, wonder if the signed are of the midway company.

I truly believe this was the midway company. I saw no other signs posted around the fair grounds.

I did approach the LPD officers that where there and asked them if they felt the signage was acceptable based on Nebraska law and they looked at each other shrugged and said they have no clue. I didn't feel like pressing the issue so I thanked them and went and enjoyed my time with family.

bullit:
After further investigation, there appears to be a preponderance of evidence that the signage was posted by the "Carnies".  As such, REALLY has no force of law in Nebraska .... at least for Mr. Kelly (the Lancaster Co Attorney) to care ....

The Event Center took down their signage several years ago ... and this appears to be a faux paus, misguided, stupid move ... SO ... next year, carry on ....
