Might the Cigarette Ban in England Drive Bingo Players On to the Internet? The Wonderful Environment of Online Bingo!
Jul 102019

A lot has been talked in the press just a while ago concerning the bingo industry struggling as a result of the smoking ban in the United Kingdom. Conditions have become so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has called for massive aid to assist in keeping the industry from going bankrupt. However does the online version of this quintessential game provide a lifeline, or will it in no way compare to its land based peer?

Bingo is an enduring game generally enjoyed by the "blue haired" generation. For all that the game lately had experienced a recent return in appeal with younger men and women opting to hit the bingo halls instead of the clubs on a Friday night. All this is about to change with the enforcement of the cigarette ban all over Britain.

No more will players be allowed to smoke whilst marking numbers. From the summer of 2007 every public location will not be permitted to allow cigarettes in their venues and this includes Bingo parlors, which are possibly the most popular areas where folks enjoy smoking.

The effects of the smoking ban can already be looked at in Scotland where smoking is already not allowed in the bingo parlours. Profits have plunged and the industry is literally fighting for its life. But where have all the players gone? Obviously they have not abandoned this established game?

The answer is on the web. Players realize that they can enjoy bingo in front of their computer whilst enjoying a drink and smoke and in the end, enjoy massive cash rewards. This is a recent development and has timed itself just about perfectly with the anti cigarette law.

Of course wagering on online can never replace the social part of heading down to the bingo parlor, but for a group of men and women the law has left many bingo players with little choice.
