Members of the Pelham City Council on Monday declined unanimously to revoke the business licenses of two bars allegedly offering illegal gambling to customers.

Many people showed up to Monday's council meeting wearing t-shirts that said, “Alabama Blazing Bingo” at Lil Bits, according to the outlet.
