247.155 Gambling devices or games of chance not to be operated -- Exception. It shall be unlawful for any person to open, cause to be opened, carry on, conduct or operate as owner, proprietor or employee any gambling device or game of chance within the confines of the grounds of the Kentucky State Fair. Any person who violates any provision of this section shall be fined not less than fifty dollars ($50) nor more than five hundred dollars ($500) for each offense. Each day in which a gambling device or game of chance is so operated shall be considered a separate offense. This section shall not apply to the sale of lottery tickets sold under the provisions of KRS Chapter 154A. Effective: December 15, 1988 History: Amended 1988 (1st Extra. Sess.) Ky. Acts ch. 1, sec. 27, effective December 15 1988. -- Created 1944 Ky. Acts ch. 118, sec. 1. Legislative Research Commission Note. Although references to the sale of "shares" were deleted in the Senate committee substitute, due to a clerical error, such reference was not deleted in the 1988 (Ex. Sess.) amendment of this section. The Reviser of Statutes, pursuant to KRS 7.136, has removed the words "or shares" to conform.
