Updated: The Best Spots for Bingo in the Billings Area
Bingo!!!
Everybody loves bingo. It's one of those games that you learned how to play when you were a child, and unlike Candyland or Chutes and Ladders, bingo is as much fun to play as an adult as it was when you were a kid. Some might argue that it's MORE fun playing the game as a grownup because you can win cold, hard, cash.
Bingo is also a relatively affordable way to gamble. $20 - $40 at a keno machine is usually gone in a matter of minutes, whereas you can play bingo for a couple of hours with your low-stakes buy-in.

Big pots can be won at local bingo games.
Of course, the larger the crowd, the bigger the pots. Some bars in the Billings area are packed during their bingo nights and players can win some seriously large pots, with hundreds - sometimes thousands - of dollars up for grabs.
