Winter 1996/1997

On a Personal Note...

With the focus of this edition on youth gambling and so much content to draw from, I decided you might be more interested in hearing something from two young people instead of me.

  • Hit Me
  • Losing Money on Purpose
  • I hope we take these messages seriously. And, even though these excerpts from longer articles written by young Minnesota authors focus primarily on casino gaming, let's not lose sight of the fact that home poker games, pull tabs, and sport events are also big among youth.
