I did ask my friends if they would prefer to stay at home and play online bingo and i was surprised when they said yes, they recon that is much more fun, they can still talk to the friends plus they have more chances to win with less money. I never thought that I will play bingo online since I used to believe that Bingo is a community game.

I believe that less and less people will choose to continue visiting land based bingo halls. Especially now with the smoking ban around the world I can see people enjoying their freedom at home!
