Default The Lobster Crane Game: BANNED

You tell me.

----------
Rocky Mountain News By Alan Gathright,
June 4, 2008

When a loyal patron urged JD's Bait Shop to remove a "game" where
people pay $2 to try to hook a live lobster with a toy crane for a
free dinner, the Greenwood Village sports bar and grill decided to
pull the plug on the Lobster Zone.

Then People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals issued a boiling mad
letter to bar owner Dennis McCann - released first to the news media -
saying "abusing animals for cheap 'amusement' in order to make a few
extra dollars is unethical and unacceptable, and I hope that you will
remove the Lobster Zone machine immediately."
-----------

Now, my question (which will please Fortenbeery to no end, I'm sure):

Isn't the Lobster Crane Game Subsistence FIshing?

Your pal,

Halfordian Golfer
