Never going to go this stadium since the American Natives bought off Gov't officials. Plus, no longer going to one of their casinos.

These are the same as slot machines if these are considered legal then so are slot machines , we should start seeing slot machines at every S.A. in MN.

"Fabian Hoffman, an attorney for one distributor, was among those speaking against the expedited process. "I don't know why the board would cut corners," Hoffman said to members before their vote. ---- Simple answer as to why. When you ram something down someone's throat, you really don't want to stop and give the person a chance to fight what is happening to them. This etabs garbage idea is going to fail miserably.

"Ready for Ipads" So you go to a bar and feed in your 20$$ and tap a screen until it is gone. A racino would have been considerably cheaper to launch and regulate, using EXISTING technology. Thanks Dayton. I will never spend a cent on your "pull tabs"

There's nothing like a group of people who know nothing about the technology pushing through legislation to legalize electronic gaming. Perhaps next time our elected officials might try to understand what they are voting for. Lotsa luck!
