devices, as these businesses may realize revenues from them.
DESCRIPTION
This proposal excludes from the definition of gambling or gambling device any
amusement device that confers only an immediate right of replay or a coupon
or credit that can be redeemed on the premises for something of value (other
than beer, liquor, or tobacco products) if it does not exceed twenty-five
dollars.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other
