Will the Cigarette Ban in England Drive Bingo Players On to the Internet?

An abundance has been reported in the papers just a while ago regarding the bingo industry singing the blues as a consequence of the smoking ban in the United Kingdom. Things have grown so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has called for big aid to assist in keeping the businesses from going bankrupt. However does the online variation of this traditional game present a escape, or will it in no way compare to its bricks and mortar kin?
Bingo is an familiar game usually played by the "blue haired" generation. However the game of late had undergone a recent return in acceptance with younger members of society opting to go to the bingo parlors rather than the clubs on a Friday night. This is all about to be reversed with the legislating of the anti smoking law across United Kingdom.
No longer will players be allowed to puff on cigarettes whilst marking off their numbers. Starting in the summer of ‘07 all public areas will no longer be permitted to allow cigarettes in their locations and this includes Bingo parlours, which are possibly the most favorite places where players like to puff on cigarettes.
The results of the anti cigarette law can already be looked at in Scotland where cigarettes are already barred in the bingo parlors. Numbers have plunged and the business is literally struggling for its life. But where did the players go? Of course they have not deserted this ancient game?
The answer is on the internet. People are now realizing that they can gamble on bingo in front of their computer whilst enjoying a cocktail and smoke and in the end, enjoy huge jackpots. This is a recent development and has timed itself just about perfectly with the ban on cigarettes.
Of course gambling on on the net can never replace the social aspect of heading down to the bingo hall, but for a demographic of men and women the governing edicts have left a number of bingo enthusiasts with no alternative.
