Lawmakers in South Carolina have advanced an effort to repeal a ban on minors playing pinball, which was implemented last century.
The legislation was introduced last year but passed the state House Judiciary Committee unanimously on Tuesday, moving it to the full House floor for consideration. The law is seldom enforced, but Democratic state Rep. Todd Rutherford has led the effort to wipe the outdated statute from the books.
“I can tell you that the people that are operating these pinball places don’t want to break the law,” Rutherford said. “They also recognize that is the law as it stands right now. A lot of them are set up as restaurants. They have ABLs, and they don’t want to run afoul of their ABL license by knowingly violating the law.”
