MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -

Air travelers will soon be able to play electronic pull-tabs at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

The Metropolitan Airports Commission on Monday approved installing electronic pull-tabs at airport bars.

Minneapolis-based Express Games MN was selected as the first distributor to offer electronic pull-tabs at the airport.

Express Games CEO Jon Weaver says the pilot program will start Jan. 2 at six bars at the airport.

Weaver says his company will offer electronic pull-tabs at both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2.

The electronic gambling games are being counted on to help pay Minnesota's share of a new Vikings stadium. Electronic pull-tabs went into operation at Minnesota bars and restaurants in September.
