Notes
Alabama also has many "electronic bingo" parlors which feature slot machines that are or are similar to Class II gaming machines. The legality of these vary from county to county, and are in a near-constant state of flux. Walker County features a number of these halls, most concentrated along the former U.S. Highway 78 between Jasper and the Jefferson County line, and range in size from converted small storefronts to large halls with hundreds of machines. In addition, the city of Fairfield legalized large electronic bingo halls in mid-2009, with certain requirements for minimum number of gaming machines. Bamaco Bingo opened in September 2009 with more than 800 machines installed and announced plans for up to 5,000 machines. Bessemer, Alabama has one such hall in place, but its legality is in question as of September 2009 due to a dispute between the city council, which voted to allow the halls, and the mayor, who opposes gambling. Additionally, Birmingham is also in the process of legalizing such halls.
