Short Summary
The provided legal document content pertains to the regulation of bingo cards in Wisconsin. It specifies that a standard set of bingo cards must consist of at least 3,000 cards numbered in sequence, with each card differing in the distribution of playing numbers. These cards can be supplied, sold, or rented to players at any bingo occasion as long as they are drawn from a standard set. The document also states the size requirements for the playing spaces on regular and special bingo cards. Before becoming the property of a licensed organization, the supplier or manufacturer must print the license number assigned by the department on the playing side of the card. The name of the licensed organization that owns the card or grouping of cards must be printed or marked on each regular card, extra regular card, and grouping of regular cards. Players who buy or rent an extra regular card are entitled to use it in all regular games conducted after the purchase or rental. The document also specifies the shape of markers used on regular or extra regular bingo cards. Advertising matter, except for specific manufacturer or printer information and the name of the licensed organization, is not allowed on any bingo card or grouping of cards. Braille bingo cards, purchased from a licensed supplier, can be sold to players for use as regular, extra regular, and special bingo cards. These cards do not need to be indelibly marked and can be reused. However, they still need to meet all other requirements. Bingo cards sold to organizations using free cards and donated prizes, without payment of consideration by participants, must be clearly marked as not for use at licensed bingo occasions. Each special game at a bingo occasion must use paper of a different color to differentiate it from other special games. The document does not mention any specific exemptions or penalties related to these regulations.
