Tradeshow Giveaway -- Business Card in a Bowl
Our software testing company is going to set up a contest at our booth at a tradeshow in Atlanta. We'd like to have people throw their business card in a bowl for a gift giveaway to win a MP3 player or a free training class. Are there any legalities we need to be aware of for this contest?

Re: Tradeshow Giveaway -- Business Card in a Bowl
No, not really so long as you actually give away the MP3 player and the class. I am not aware of Georgia law, but I am sure it is the same as here. If in doubt, go to the nearest mall and see if there is a win-a-car box. If so, you are clear. And always remember the maxim as to local government when your project appears normal and consistent with other conduct in the community - never ask unless you are prepared for the worst answer you can imagine.
