Alabama, known as the Heart of Dixie, is a southeastern state with thousands of miles of inland waterways. It was admitted as the 22nd state in 1819. It is bordered by Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi, as well as the Gulf of Mexico. Are you looking for bingo in Alabama? You've come to the right place.

Alabama has a long history of being a conservative state. Located in the Bible belt, the state has been resistant to legalize gambling. However, changes came to the state in the mid 1980's when the Poarch Band of Creek Indians became the only federally recognized tribe in the state of Alabama. With that recognition by the United States government, the tribe was able to open an electronic bingo hall in Escambia County on April 13, 1985.

Fast forward to 2017 and the Poarch Band Creek of Indians now operates three casinos in Alabama - one in Wetumpka, one in Montgomery, and one in Atmore. While technically the games are electronic bingo machines, they have the look and feel of slot machines that you find in the likes of Las Vegas or Biloxi.

I had the opportunity to spend a night at one of the casinos attached hotels and chose to check out the Montgomery location while I was en route to Panama City. (Both the Montgomery and Wetumpka casinos are midway between North Alabama and the beaches of South Alabama.) Like all other casinos that I have visited, pictures are not permitted of the machines, but I was able to get some snapshots of the hotel.

Inside Wind Creek Montgomery

The Wind Creek Montgomery hotel is adjacent to the casino. (If you bring your children with you, be sure that you enter the main doors of the hotel and not the casino. Children are not allowed on the casino floor.) As you walk in the entrance, the sounds and action of the game floor to the right will beckon you to come over. Straight ahead of you is BB King's Blues Club - a great place to sink your teeth into some delicious entrees like Yazoo Catfish Creole or a Shrimp Po Boy. To your left is the way to check-in with a shoe shine station and a store to spend your winnings to the right.

There is also a small business center near the lobby.

While the hotel is nice, the real reason most of us are going to go to Wind Creek Montgomery is for the action. Having been to casinos in Biloxi, Tunica, and Las Vegas, I would rate the action at Wind Creek Montgomery to be towards the top of my list. I hit the slot machines both in the evening and in the morning. I recommend that you keep your game time limited to the evening when there are a lot of others playing.

When I played in the evening, I was able to play quarter slots for about an hour with $40. (You may or may not have the same luck as I did.) When I played in the morning, I lost $20 in 5-10 minutes. Odds are always in favor of the house, so never gamble more than you are willing to lose.

While playing, take a break and take advantage of the free drinks. There are a couple of drink stations where you can help yourself to soda and coffee. Walk around and get a good look at the machines and see which one appeals most to you before playing.
