Indiana considers pull-tabs at bars

Indiana considers pull-tabs at bars:

"INDIANAPOLIS -- It used to be easy to gamble at the Marengo Tavern in Crawford County.
Customers could play electronic games like Cherry Masters or buy paper pull-tabs at the bar. A few times the place got busted, forcing owner Tony Main to pay fines.


But with last year's statewide crackdown on illegal wagering, the Marengo Tavern was forced to stop the games, a move that has made paying the bills a bit of a struggle, Main conceded.
Now, the Indiana General Assembly is considering legislation that would allow the Marengo Tavern to bring back at least some of its gambling business -- this time legally."
