Texas State Fair

The ruling clears the way for the State Fair of Texas to legally ban firearms from Fair Park beginning Friday.

Attorney General Ken Paxton's office wanted a judge to put a stop to the State Fair's gun ban before the fair opens Sept. 27.

Paxton says it violates state law for the State Fair to ban firearms from Fair Park, which is owned by the City of Dallas.

The city has 15 days to make the State Fair reverse its ban on all firearms — including licensed concealed carry — before Paxton says he'll seek legal action.

State legislators and gun rights advocates are calling on the State Fair of Texas to rescind its new policy banning firearms, implemented nearly a year after a shooting at the fair injured three.

This year, the colossal cowboy celebrates seven decades greeting fairgoers. It's also 10 years since the beloved mascot burst into flames.

Texans are eager to return to the in-person fair, but they may have to wait a little longer to get their favorite treats due to a scarcity of workers.
