Quoted from Black_Knight:Still waiting for someone to point to a statute for either the pinball tournament legality it to trophies.
I agree. This whole discussion interested me so I dug around and from what I can see in the statutes there are very clear exceptions for prizes and award purses to competitions of skill which would make trophies and prizes in local tournaments perfectly legal: https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/945/01
I do not know about how this would ultimately be applied to the whole IFPA change, but I don't see why prizes or a trophy in a local tourney would not be legal.
