Goodness gracious, might as well leave the gun at home. Better watch for no gun signs!
In the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, we don't look for signs.
We carry in bars, we carry in amusement parks, we carry at school sporting events, heck, we carry at professional sporting events, we carry at hospitals, we carry at nursing homes (WTF?), and our courts are required by law to provide gun lockers

No wonder we have 4x the carry rate of Texas, and more total people carrying than Texas, and more NRA members than any state in the US. We have more men, women, and children in the field on the first day of Deer Rifle season than Texas has people carrying guns. Our schools and businesses close that day!
