Origins of Bingo

The game of Bingo has been traced all the way to the Sixteenth Century, to an Italian Lottery game that is still popular today. Bingo was then imported to countries like Germany and France and marketed as a child’s game to aid in learning math. Bingo landed in America in the 1900’s and was first called “Beano”. Beano was popular at Country Fairs, where a caller would pick out numbered balls and players would mark their cards with beans, the winner yelling Beano.

In New York City a man named Edwin Lowe renamed the game Bingo after overhearing a player yell out “bingo” instead of “beano” by mistake. Lowe enlisted the aid of a Math professor to expand the number of combinations on the cards. By the 1930's the two had created over 6,000 bingo cards and became very popular across the United States. Bingo became an over-night sensation with Bingo Halls operating in just about every city in the USA and United Kingdom.

British Bingo Slang
Below is a selection of British Bingo Slang.

#1 Ball = Kelly's Eye
This phrase seems to date back to when a version of bingo was a popular British Army game - the only gambling game allowed by the army. No one knows Kelly was.

#17 Ball = Dancing Queen
From the song, Dancing Queen, by Swedish band ABBA "You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen."

#33 Ball = Sherwood Forest
Robin Hood's home. 33 all the threes or all the 'trees'.

#50 Ball = Bulls Eye
This bit of bingo slang derives from the game of darts. The "Bull's Eye" when hit is worth 50 points.

Important note for USA residents
Thank you for visiting Bingo Bonanza. There are a very limited number of online gambling sites that are prepared to offer their services to residents in the USA.
On Bingo Bonanza you will only be shown banners and listings of sites that allow USA residents to play. So the lists might well be rather thin.

For details of the USA legislation, please visit: http://www.unlawfulinternetgamblingenforcementact.net/
You will see that it is not gambling on the Internet that is unlawful, but rather the provision of financial instruments (credit cards, wire transfers, e-wallets, cash etc) for the purposes of online gambling. Some sites are still able to make the necessary financial arrangements.

Please support those sites that still offer gambling to USA residents by clicking on their links and playing at their sites.

Trust everybody, but cut the cards.

How to Top Up Your Online Bingo Finances
One of the problems that most online gamblers incur at some stage of their lives is always running out of money. Unless your nickname is “Jammy” and you have been attributed with the qualities of Lady Luck herself, it is highly unlikely that you will go your entire life without having to make a deposit of some sort or another at an online gambling site.

Online bingo sites are by and large far cheaper to play at than other online gambling sites. But that doesn’t mean in any sense that you won’t run out of money and some point or another. Thankfully however, there are a number of ways players at online bingo sites can compensate themselves with additional cash to bankroll their online bingo gambling.

Is Online Bingo Specifically for the Ladies?
If you had asked most people back in the nineteen eighty’s who was most likely to play bingo, then the vast majority of responses would have been the middle-aged, or elderly. Rather more specifically we might add, elderly ladies. With the advent of online bingo however, that market has suddenly shifted.

Let’s not be ageist here. A great many of our elders are more than adept at using a computer and so the reason for the change in social groups playing this online game has absolutely nothing to do with technology, although that certainly may be a factor in the more fiddly, mobile bingo games. But as far as online bingo goes, there are other catalysts for change that must be considered.
