I know the one in SD specifically said "No personal pets," but when I showed up, there were still a handful of people walking around with their beardies they brought from home. This was the reptile super show. I asked a couple of them about it and they said they bring their beardies every year and never get hassled. Tgolden brings up a good point though about disease. With all the thousands of animals there from all over the country, disease is a real possibility that I wouldn't want to risk, especially if you have multiple herps at home.
