Louisville, KY – Today, the Kentucky Merchants and Amusement Coalition (KY MAC), along with its members, rallied in the Capitol Rotunda in support of legal skill games.  

I recently saw an advertisement by an organization claiming to be working against illegal gambling in Kentucky. In this ad, the organization refers to small businesses that operate skill games as predators and suggests that we are affiliated with organized crime and violence.

I could tell hundreds of stories I’ve heard of how businesses, along with fraternal clubs and veterans organizations, have benefited in tremendous ways from legal skill games.

Skill games have helped and even saved small businesses. I could tell hundreds of stories of how businesses, along with fraternal clubs and veterans organizations, have benefited in exceptional ways from legal skill games.
