People freaking amaze me. If they don't win every time they go, the workers are cheating. They spend 20.00 on tabs and get ticked off if someone who spends 5 or 6 hundred dollars when they win. It is gambling, period. These same people who absolutely know so much, are such experts, who run their mouths about cheating, won't take the time to get there early and watch the tabs be mixed, they won't bother to sit with the caller a session or two to see how it is done, NOOOOO it is too easy to make up lies. First, anyone with the IQ of cool whip should know that in this day and age there is ZERO chance of anyone cheating. Common sense tells you that the caller can not magically pull out the ball that ""Suzie Q needs on her 2nd pack during the 4th game. How the hell would he know and how would he force a machine to spit up that ball? IDIOTS! Then those who run their big mouths about tabs. Once again, If they knew where they were, people who didn't donate sure as hell would never ever win and not only that, the workers would be playing and not running their asses off! Third donations, if those workers were not there, you would not be playing bingo at all! The packs cost 10.00 each x (let just say) 200 people if each person played 2 packs (which we all know they don't) the amount of money is 4000.00. Now subtract, the almost 5000.00 pay out, the rent of 7 or 8 hundred dollars per session, the cost of the paper (yeah they have to pay for all of that) the cost of the pull tabs and you figure out who carries the majority of the load of that hall! You win 500.00 and give them 20.00 ..... big freakin deal! If you have a 500.00 tab at a restaurant .... how much do you tip the waitress?? What makes you think the workers are any less worth it? You wouldn't be there, you wouldn't have won it if they weren't there working their butts off. So if someone wins more than you do .... it is gambling, period, you put your money down and if you win, ye ha for you, but if someone is spend 20 or 30 times what your are, if is reasonable that they are going to win more often than you do. So grow up, stop spreading crap you obviously know nothing about and I don't care that you ""used to work at a bingo"" then is then and now is now and the rules have changed and you don't know your butt from a hole in the ground now. If you think the place is cheating, then go some place else. But then it is my experience that whiners and complainers think every hall is cheating unless they win every time they walk through the door. Grow up and either enjoy the games or stay the heck at home....
