GAMbling
Current law regulates the operation of crane games by requiring DOA registration of a crane game before it is set up for play, and before the owner may collect any proceeds from the game. A crane game is an amusement device involving skill that rewards the player exclusively with merchandise contained within the device. The merchandise is restricted to prizes, toys, and novelties of limited value.
This bill repeals all provisions that regulate the operation of crane games.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
