In a sad move, Spirit Mountain Casino, the state of Oregon's largest gambling establishment, has closed down its bingo hall. Citing a desire to introduce yet another slot machine parlor to the gambling complex, casino officials seem to be more interested in their venue's bottom line than the satisfaction of their clientèle. Bingo patrons, who for years attended daily and weekly bingo games at the Oregon casino, expressed great sorrow over the loss of their favorite hall.

Spirit Mountain Casino made sure to go out with a blast, offering about $90,000 in prize money during the last bingo session. Some longtime bingo players waited in line for more than half a day to ensure they got their lucky spots in the bingo hall during the last game. We at dot-bingo.com would like to extend our condolences to the bingo regulars in Oregon, and hope that their luck improves.
