Might the Smoking Ban in Britain Drive Bingo Players On to the Internet?

Much has been written in the press recently regarding the bingo industry struggling because of the anti smoking law in Britain. Conditions have grown so awful that in Scotland the Bingo industry has asked for massive aid to help keep the businesses afloat. But will the web adaptation of this quintessential game provide a salvation, or might it in no way compare to its real life kin?

Bingo is an ancient game usually enjoyed by the "blue rinse" generation. In any case the game lately had undergone a recent comeback in popularity with younger men and women deciding to go to the bingo parlors rather than the bars on a Friday night. This is all about to change with the enacting of the smoking ban throughout United Kingdom.

No longer will enthusiasts be allowed to puff on cigarettes whilst dabbing numbers. From the summer of ‘07 all public areas will no longer be permitted to allow cigarettes in their locations and this includes Bingo parlors, one of the most popular locations where folks like to smoke.

The outcome of the anti smoking law can already be observed in Scotland where cigarettes are already barred in the bingo halls. Profits have plunged and the industry is beyond a doubt struggling for its life. But where did the players go? Surely they have not forgotten this age old game?

The answer is online. People are now realizing that they can bet on bingo from their computer while enjoying a beer and fag and in the end, enjoy monstrous cash rewards. This is a recent development and has happened bordering on perfect with the ban on smoking.

Of course playing on the web is unlikely to replace the social portion of heading down to the bingo parlour, but for a group of players the rules have left a number of bingo enthusiasts with no choice.
