Last week, we gave you an update on bingo and when that might return to Southern California’s casinos.
This week, we know more about what the classic Casino Morongo did with its shuttered bingo space and the answer, for now, is to use the space for additional slots and table games.
Casino Morongo, shown here in 2019, has turned its bingo area into a space for table games, slots. (File photo by Fielding Buck, The Press-Enterprise/SCNG)The space was supposed to be Casino Morongo’s new non-smoking room with 100 slots and eight blackjack games, but casino officials later decided to make the entire casino non-smoking (there are designated areas outside).
That doesn’t necessarily mean bingo is gone for good, though. Read on to see what the casino has to say.
