Much has been talked in the papers recently about the bingo industry singing the blues as a consequence of the anti cigarette law in England. Things have become so poor that in Scotland the Bingo industry has requested massive aid to assist in keeping the industry alive. But will the internet version of this classic game present a escape, or will it in no way compare to its bricks and mortar peer?

Bingo has been an classic game historically enjoyed by the "blue rinse" generation. In any case the game lately had seen a recent resurgence in acceptance with younger members of society deciding to go to the bingo parlors instead of the clubs on a weekend. This is all about to get flipped on its head with the legislating of the cigarette ban throughout Britain.

No more will players be permitted to smoke while marking numbers. Starting in the summer of ‘07 every public location will not be allowed to permit smoking in their venues and this includes Bingo parlours, one of the most favorite areas where people like to puff on cigarettes.

The effects of the anti smoking law can already be observed in Scotland where cigarettes are already forbidden in the bingo halls. Players have plunged and the industry is absolutely struggling for to stay alive. But where have the players gone? Certainly they have not cast aside this enduring game?

The answer is on the net. People realize that they can gamble on bingo from their computer whilst enjoying a beverage and smoke and still enjoy massive prizes. This is a recent development and has happened bordering on perfect with the ban on cigarettes.

Of course wagering on on the web can never replace the collective aspect of going down to the bingo parlor, but for a demographic of men and women the rules have left a good many bingo enthusiasts with little alternative.
