can i carry in the okc gunshow

Why could he carry into any of the buildings? As far as the gun show goes, they can restrict him from carrying it, the same as any other business owner. However, you can carry in fairgrounds buildings.
Unless, the city is directly conducting business with the public. Or, at least that is how I understand the law.

No carry in State owned buildings. That includes the Fair ground buildings.

Every year it seems some dipstick CC's a gun into a show. Pulls it out to try in a holster, show someone, or try to sell or trade and has a Negligent Discharge.
Common sense would tell you to check at the door what your going to sell or trade and CC something else.

Nowdays to many people cant plan that far in advance.

I don't check my gun at anybody's door. I can carry in a box of .223 in any gun show without being under suspicion, load an empty mag in my other pocket after getting in, and get a gun from any vendor to spray the crowd. No thank you. I'll stay armed.

Here's a link to the SDA, the discussion here is whether these buildings are specifically for "conducting business with the public". Couple that with the statements in part B section 4 and the discussion gets more interesting.

Is the gun show promoter not a member of the public? Did that member of the public not do business with the government on some level to reserve and rent the building?

Just because the attendees don't do direct business with the government doesn't mean business with the government was not conducted.
