Here's an idea, drive-in bingo: Mr. A.C. Casino

With bingo games in Atlantic City on hold, perhaps one of the casinos might like to steal an idea from the Cornwall Bingo Center in Canada.
Owner Kim Ladouceur is taking advantage of a law that allows drive-in movies to operate, even when the casinos and bingo parlors can’t.
“Maybe we can do drive-in bingo,” she thought.
“It has been better than we could imagine,” Ladouceur told CTV News reporter Nate Vandermeer.
Ladouceur sells the cards outside, and players stay safe in their cars. The caller is in the hall, and the Center goes live on Facebook so players can see the balls.
Instead of yelling “Bingo!” presumptive winners beep their horns. Masked staff with walkie-talkies run to the car in the parking lot, verify the bingo and return with cash.
Resorts reschedules drawings
The drawing for a 2020 BMW 3 Series at Resorts Casino Hotel has been rescheduled for 4 p.m. Aug. 30. For every tier point players earn while using their Star Card from Jan. 2 through 3:55 p.m. Aug. 30, they receive one entry. The drawing will be held at 4 p.m.
In addition, Resorts’ $35,000 June Jackpot Sweepstakes has been rescheduled to Sept. 26. All June entries will be accepted for these new drawings. Players earn one entry for every taxable hand-paid jackpot. One person will win $1,000 in slot cash every 10 minutes, followed by a $10,000 cash grand prize drawing at 10:15 p.m.
