QSP, Casino Night, Connecticut
Hmmmmm.... hate to see this one. The Connecticut Attorney General's office has opened up an investigation of a local Catholic High School and QSP/Reader's Digest (the fundraising guys) over a Casino Night fundraiser. Looks like group was using real casino-like equipment that may have been provided by QSP. I'm betting that there's more to this story and that perhaps the casino wheel was part of the reward at the end of a successful magazine drive, but we'll see.

Raffle/gambling rules are different in every state and often very hard to figure out. Usually, good-faith efforts by good causes get a pass. Clearly, though, groups can push it too far and wind up with some 'splainin' to do.
