In a recent episode of the RJ. Harris Breakfast Show, Attorney General Dave Sunday joined the conversation to discuss the implications of the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court's ruling on skill games. These games, often found in bars and social clubs, have been a topic of debate in the state, with some viewing them as a form of entertainment and others seeing them as a threat to public safety.

The Attorney General's office has been working to regulate these games, which are often referred to as slot machines, but with a twist - they require skill to play. The Supreme Court's ruling has given the legislature 120 days to come up with a solution, and if no legislation is passed, the Attorney General's office will have to assess the situation and determine how to proceed.

The Attorney General emphasized the importance of regulating these games, citing concerns about consumer protection, community safety, and the potential for addiction. He also highlighted the need for clear laws that can adapt to technological advancements and nuances in the industry. With over 70,000 of these games in operation throughout Pennsylvania, the task of regulation will be a significant one.

If you're interested in learning more about the implications of this ruling and the potential consequences for the state, tune in to this episode of the RJ. Harris Breakfast Show to hear the Attorney General's thoughts on the matter and what it means for the people of Pennsylvania.
