Might the Anti Smoking Law in the United Kingdom Drive Bingo Enthusiasts On to the Web?

A lot has been stated in the papers recently concerning the bingo industry being hit because of the anti cigarette law in the United Kingdom. Conditions have become so awful that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested big tax cuts to help keep the industry afloat. However will the internet variation of this classic game present a escape, or might it never compare to its land based relative?
Bingo has been an classic game generally played by the "blue haired" generation. In any case the game of late had experienced a recent resurgence in popularity with younger members of society deciding to visit the bingo parlours in place of the bars on a Saturday night. This is all about to change with the introduction of the anti smoking law throughout Britain.
No more will gamblers be allowed to smoke at the same time marking off their numbers. From the summer of 2007 every public area will not be allowed to permit cigarettes in their locations and this includes Bingo parlors, one of the most popular locations where players like to puff on cigarettes.
The results of the smoking ban can already be observed in Scotland where cigarettes are already not permitted in the bingo parlors. Profits have dropped and the business is beyond a doubt struggling for its life. But where have all the players gone? Of course they haven’t given up on this familiar game?
The answer is online. People realise that they can enjoy bingo from their computer whilst enjoying a beer and cigarette and in the end, enjoy monstrous prizes. This is a recent phenomenon and has happened bordering on perfect with the anti smoking law.
Of course wagering on on the internet could never replace the communal part of going down to the bingo hall, but for a demographic of men and women the rules have left a number of bingo players with no alternative.
