 |

Hey, I recently went to a bingo hall for the first time! Different experience from the online bingo.
Wondering what you people think of bingo halls vs. online bingo.
Which one do you like better? |

| I used to play at Bingo Halls until the online bingo came alone. I like Bingo Halls because it got me out of the house, but now im just lazy and play online. |

| Definately. I like the atmosphere at bingo halls better than on the internet. Makes it a lot more rewarding when you win, and there is more hype. |

I used to go with my buddies back in the day and it was awesome because it got us all together once a week. We still go occasionally, but for the most part, we meet online.
I miss going out with the guys |

Yeah forsure. Most people that I have talked to say that they like the online experience better, but I think you should go Fishbones, because it's a cool experience, and you may meet some people that have good sites and stuff there too!!!
Report back! |

wow, well that was an experience!
Checked out the bingo hall last night... pretty much everything that i had heard. I think I prefer playing online rather than going to a casino.
I've got more friends that play online  |

| Did you find that there were many old people? I find that most people that go to bingo halls are generally older |

| For the most part, the bingo players were a bit older, but there were also many young people there too |

I've only been to a bingo hall a few times. The last time, I went with everyone from FreeBingo and we didn't win anything.  I even had the embarassment of making a false claim! (I thought we were playing one-line when in fact it was a full house only game LOL)
But we did get one ball away from the National jackpot!! Oh it was so close, we could have made a share of a few hundred grand! 
The previous time to that I went with some friends before I worked at FreeBingo. My best mate Lee came, and he had never been. He won £100 on his first go! LOL. He said afterwards that he got more satisfaction of seeing the face of the old lady opposite who had been giving him evil stares and telling him to shush all night! lol.
At least online when you lose you can hide your disappointment with a quickly typed 'WD' |
