Giving rhyming nicknames to
Bingo numbers as they were called started in traditional land based
Bingo halls as was used to not only give an added sense of fun to the
game but also clarify what numbers were drawn.
As Bingo became more and more
popular so did the Bingo Nicknames, and nowadays there are lots of various
terms given to every number in the game, some no longer
rhyme and are given simply for comedy value !
