I found this information to be interesting. I'm going to have to start looking around for these sweepstakes kiosks; Texans love to gamble. I bet they pull in huge revenues... the house never loses, right.

"That said, there are a handful of states where computer sweepstakes businesses are absolutely going crazy right now. These include North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Ohio, and a few others. Some areas of Virginia have sweepstakes, some don’t. Arizona, Georgia, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oaklahoma, Mississippi, Kentucky, Michigan, Alabama, California… All have some level of Internet sweepstakes cafes. You’d be surprised where they’re popping up. I was visiting family in Idaho a few months back and saw one there. Some states require smaller setups (no more than 5-6 terminals) inside of another business. This is a PERFECT scenario for our proprietary Internet kiosks (sweepstakes Totems). Some states are MOSTLY good but have a few counties that are having troubles understanding the sweepstakes business concept. Ultimately ANY STATE that allows sweepstakes gaming should also allow sweepstakes Internet cafes. Can you play the McDonalds Monopoly game in your state? If the answer is YES, then you should also be able to open a sweepstakes Internet cafe in your state.

To my knowledge, the only state that has proactively passed a law to try to specifically eliminate sweepstakes Internet cafes is Utah. But that ruling is being challenged right now and will likely be overturned. Even if it isn’t overturned, clever sweepstakes software companies are busy creating sweepstakes machines that jump right around that law by offering sweepstakes games in less controversial formats–avoiding slots, keno, and card games. Should the method that is used to reveal the sweepstakes entries create a legal challenge? Absolutely not! But does it? Unfortunately, sometimes the answer is yes. However; unless a state is willing to take on McDonalds, Coca-Cola, Time Warner, and dozens of other extremely large companies with very deep pockets, it’s not going to be able to completely prohibit sweepstakes as a viable way of marketing and promoting products to customers."
