Did someone just yell "Bingo"? BK Entertainment (formerly Stuart Enterprises) manufactures nearly 44 billion bingo cards and pull-tabs a year with worldwide distribution in 27 countries. The company also supplies ink dabbers, ball blowers, and flash boards for bingo emporiums, as well as hand-held electronic bingo units that allow players to play on hundreds of cards at one time. The company uses a mathematician to make sure bingo card numbers are different. Emerging from Chapter 11 bankrupcty protection in 1999, the company changed its name and became a private holding company.
