Can the Smoking Ban in England Force Bingo Players On to the Net?

An abundance has been written in the press just a while ago concerning the bingo industry being hurt because of the smoking ban in Britain. Conditions have become so awful that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested big tax cuts to help keep the industry alive. But will the web variation of this quintessential game provide a lifeline, or might it in no way compare to its real life peer?
Bingo is an ancient game usually played by the "blue haired" generation. In any case the game recently had witnessed a recent increase in popularity with younger people deciding to go to the bingo parlors instead of the discos on a Friday night. All this is about to be reversed with the enacting of the anti cigarette law throughout United Kingdom.
Players will no longer be able to puff on cigarettes whilst marking numbers. Starting in the summer of ‘07 every public location will not be permitted to allow cigarettes in their venues and this includes Bingo parlors, one of the most common locations where people like to puff on cigarettes.
The outcome of the anti cigarette law can already be seen in Scotland where smoking is already barred in the bingo parlors. Profits have plunged and the industry is absolutely fighting for to stay alive. But where did the players go? Surely they haven’t deserted this familiar game?
The answer is on the internet. People are now realizing that they can bet on bingo from their computer at the same time enjoying a beverage and cigarette and still have a chance at huge cash rewards. This is a recent development and has happened bordering on perfect with the ban on smoking.
Of course playing on the net is unlikely to replace the collective aspect of going down to the bingo parlour, but for a group of players the governing edicts have left a lot of bingo enthusiasts with no option.
