The Potawatomi Bingo hall closed its doors in late 2016. The decision was made after years of declining profits and a declining membership base.
The company cited the opioid epidemic as one of the reasons for the closure, as bingo halls became less popular among people due to gambling addiction and social disorders that can come with it.
There are several factors that contributed to the closure of Bingo Potawatomi. Firstly, the opioid epidemic has impacted many people in a negative way, which has led to a decline in gambling habits.
Secondly, bingo halls were not as popular as they once were due to the rise of video gaming and other digital activities. Finally, Bingo Potawatomi was not able to keep up with the competition, as other bingo halls opened up in the area.
