If you’re hoping to see smoking hot, scantily clad booth babes at this year’s E3 expo, think again. The organization has announed that they will be dealing out fines for over-exposing their, ahem, booth models.

Rules prohibiting the use of scantily clad young women to peddle video games are nothing new, but the handbook for this year’s show in May outlines tough new penalties, including a $5,000 fine on the spot for the booth owner if the “booth babe” is semi-clad.

…

The handbook from the Entertainment Software Association, the show’s promoter, says: “Material, including live models, conduct that is sexually explicit and/or sexually provocative, including but not limited to nudity, partial nudity and bathing suit bottoms, are prohibited on the show floor, all common areas, and at any access points to the show.”

As with all things surrounding “indecency,” the show promoters maintain that they alone will determine what is, and is not, acceptable.
