The State of Minnesota could be left holding the bag if electronic pulls tabs in the state's bars do not produce enough funding for the state's portion of the Minnesota Vikings new stadium.
The revenue projected from the machines in 2012 was $34,000,000 but the state collected only $16,000,000.
Representative Gene Pelowski says he hopes getting the devices to more establishments will be the answer.
Tax revenues from the electronic gambling games will help fund the state's $348,000,000 share of the Vikings' $975,000,000 stadium project to be open in 2016.
