I've been away from the Midwest for quite some time but when I resided there I used to regularly attend the CADA Shows which were held at the Pheasant Run Resort. There was an open bar at the show and in all my years of attendance I don't remember one issue due to this.
Any well regulated show that I know of requires all firearms to be unloaded and secured, usually with cable ties, to prevent any kind of accidents. How drinking in moderation which was all I ever observed under these circumstances can be an issue is a mystery to me.
N.B: The major gun shows in Arizona where I now reside have a no alcohol policy. This is solely due to the fact that the promoter is Mormon. Other smaller shows here have no such policy.
