It’s illegal to have more then 4 games in an arcade.
|I guess they have really, REALLY, small arcades in Rocky Hill

This is another false law. I only say this about the ones I am SURE of.
I live in CT.
You can also just google it. Or call any CT police department. 🙂
Too bad, I was excited about this site!
…This is the 2nd false one I have read for Connecticut (I am only sure about Connecticut…and, there could be more that aren’t true but I wont say anything unless I know for sure.)
If these are “outdated” or whatever it may be- they should say it.
As of 2014, the NY Post validated this one and they are pretty reputable:
In Rocky Hill, Connecticut, no arcade shall have in any place more than a total of four mechanical amusement devices.
And by “mechanical amusement device,” they mean any coin-slot-operated game, including Ping-Pong tables, pinball machines, and pool. No word on video games or, like, Google Glass. Rocky Hill gaming law is stuck in the ’70s.
