After a hiatus of over two years, bingo enthusiasts can rejoice as the Potawatomi Hotel & Casino in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, announces the revival of bingo sessions at its venue. Bingo, a beloved tradition that began more than 30 years ago, will once again grace the casino’s halls, rekindling the excitement of the game for patrons.
The casino has marked an exciting date on the calendar – New Year’s Day, when bingo will make its triumphant return to the property. Regular sessions are set to commence from January 4, offering entertainment and thrill throughout the week, from Wednesdays to Sundays.
Anticipation is in the air as the pre-sale for bingo tickets kicked off on December 13. Enthusiasts can secure their seats by purchasing tickets at the bingo reservation booth. However, with only 600 seats available for sale, it’s essential to act swiftly to guarantee a spot in the bingo action.
Expansive Renovation Enhancements Unveiled
In addition to the bingo revival, the Potawatomi Hotel & Casino has been working diligently on a remarkable transformation. The ongoing $100 million renovation of the third floor is set to redefine the casino experience and leave visitors in awe. Spanning a colossal area of over 120,000 square feet, this expansion is slated for completion by the spring of 2023.
Enthusiasts can expect an array of enhancements that promise to elevate their gaming adventure. The revamped gaming floors will showcase an impressive collection of more than 1,800 slot machine stations, offering a myriad of choices and thrills. Notably, a novel feature, a bar adorned with 28 bar-top “slot seats,” will debut, providing a unique and immersive gaming experience.
Moreover, the third-floor transformation will embrace cutting-edge technology with the inclusion of an array of 4K televisions, further enhancing the ambiance and entertainment quotient. These enhancements are poised to create an unforgettable environment for visitors, blending modernity with the thrill of casino gaming.
Strong Community Engagement and Support
The Potawatomi Hotel & Casino’s impact extends beyond its gaming offerings. Earlier this year, the casino forged a significant partnership by signing a multi-year sponsorship agreement with the Milwaukee Brewers, a Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise. This collaboration exemplifies the casino’s commitment to community engagement and support for local sports and entertainment.
In the realm of community sentiment, recent polls shed light on the community’s stance regarding a potential new addition to the casino landscape. A survey conducted by the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin’s gaming commission revealed substantial support from Kenosha County residents for a proposed Hard Rock International casino. Impressively, 60% of residents voiced their approval, while 25% expressed opposition to the project.
Expanding the scope to encompass neighboring counties, including Racine, Waukesha, and Milwaukee, the project garners even more support. A comprehensive poll spanning the four-county region underscored a solid 60% backing for the Kenosha casino initiative, with a mere 15% voicing opposition.
As the countdown to the bingo revival continues and the casino’s transformation takes shape, the Potawatomi Hotel & Casino remains a dynamic hub of entertainment and community engagement. With its rich legacy, innovative enhancements, and unwavering community support, the casino’s future is poised to shine even brighter on the vibrant landscape of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
