Is there any legal guide lines for how often Bingo Balls must be changed?
We have several charity bingos that are using bingo balls from 5 to 10 years ago. Several are miss matched and the paint is falking. I can not get them to buy new balls for the machine. They say they don’t have to. But we get the same numbers repaeting every game – and some hardly ever show up unless it is a coverall! I need legal verification that they have to replace the balls.
It’s for charity. They can do what they please. If they were actually rigging the machine or rigging the cards, that’d be another story.
Here’s a thought, though: Take a collection and buy some new balls for the machine with the money. I’m sure enough people probably care about this same issue. I know it must be frustrating.
