In all, Vegas is home to almost 20 parlors, and Vegas is one of the best places to be if you want to play bingo. Bingo has long been a popular game that has been played around the world under various names. Having originated from the lottery game in Italy, Bingo, just like its predecessor, is a game of chance that gives each player an opportunity to win based on random patterns being called out, and which must form a pattern on his card. The Bingo game created such an appeal among carnival goers in Las Vegas, that it soon became a big money making attraction.
You can find Bingo halls in every Vegas casino, and these are usually legalized; it is not discouraged by the government, and its main players include both old people and young people. In fact, the commercialization of packaged Bingo games and a popular children's song with the same name, has given Bingo a decent family-oriented image. Communities often organize Bingo games for socialization purposes.
Nevertheless, Bingo is considered a gambling game that attracts a lot of people to come to Vegas. Companies that organize these games profit from them as well, though they are regulated by the government.
