Might the Anti Smoking Law in England Drive Bingo Enthusiasts On to the Net?

An abundance has been written in the papers not long ago regarding the bingo industry being hurt as a result of the smoking ban in the UK. Conditions have grown so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested massive tax cuts to assist in keeping the businesses alive. But can the net adaptation of this quintessential game present a salvation, or might it never compare to its real life kin?

Bingo has been an enduring game usually enjoyed by the "blue rinse" generation. However the game of late had seen a recent return in popularity with younger people opting to hit the bingo parlors rather than the clubs on a Friday night. This is all about to be reversed with the legislating of the cigarette ban all over England and Wales.

No more will gamblers be allowed to smoke at the same time dabbing numbers. Beginning in the summer of 2007 every public area will not be permitted to allow smoking in their venues and this includes Bingo halls, one of the most favored places where folks like to puff on cigarettes.

The results of the anti cigarette law can already be observed in Scotland where cigarettes are already barred in the bingo parlours. Profits have plummeted and the industry is absolutely fighting for to stay alive. But where have the players gone? Certainly they haven’t forgotten this familiar game?

The answer is online. Players realize that they can play bingo from their computer at the same time enjoying a beer and cig and still enjoy monstrous cash rewards. This is a recent development and has timed itself almost perfectly with the ban on cigarettes.

Of course playing online will never replace the communal aspect of going over to the bingo hall, but for a demographic of men and women the governing edicts have left a lot of bingo players with no alternative.
