Buzz Bingo omits number 20 from all games
2020 was a rocky and horrible year for most industries and even most individuals after the COVID-19 pandemic hit in full force and many economies around the world suffered from major setbacks. In order to spare some of the pain of this traumatizing year, British operator Buzz Bingo has announced that it will be completely removing the number 20 from all of its games, collectively.
Now, players and fans of Buzz Bingo will never have to hear ‘One Score, Twenty’ at the operator’s clubs or even online on the website buzzbingo.com.
Buzz Bingo’s chief financial officer, Ben Gohall, commented on this announcement saying:
“No one can deny that 2020 was a horrendous year, which is why we’ve made the decision to remove the number 20 from all of our games. We’re very hopeful that 21 doesn’t have to follow suit.”
Furthermore, Buzz Bingo was forced to shut down all of its clubs in order to stick to the regulations during the pandemic, but the good news is that the operator can finally open its doors once more once lockdown restrictions are eased in the United Kingdom. But until that rolls around, players can still enjoy all of its online bingo games as well as the online slots at buzzbingo.com.
