Abstract: 

The Ohio Supreme Court recently held that a professional baseball team qualified for the sale-for-resale exemption to the state’s use tax for promotional items used to help sell tickets for selected games. That decision deepens a disagreement among state supreme courts on the issue. This comment analyzes the Ohio decision as a follow-up to an article published in the Journal last year.
