I remember when I was young , as I visited my Aunt house , there are many people that enjoys playing this and now as I grow Old , there are designated houses where i can enjoy betting and playing Bingo with really good return.
well a simple search in Google will bring this answer directly , and I have also read this article way back but thanks for OP as he reminds me of what said on that said article.
That's a short and precise history of bingo. I remember this game when I was still living in my old neighborhood when I was still a young guy. It's like every day, those people have nothing to do and they're always meeting each other in the same spot.
It is a bingo neighborhood and everyone likes it whoever wins some good amount at the end of their bingo session, that person is buying us some snacks as kids.
there are some small places I come to visit that has this games all around the area, as i sometimes work for community visiting.
Im kinda surprised I'm not the only person who thinks old people (like granpas and grandmas) who is most likely to win Bingo games. I've played Bingo in different places before, even in an office event for Thanksgiving, but I too have never won, not even once out of the hundreds or maybe thousand tries.
It's even funny that I've played it at some point where there were only like not more than 10 participants and still I did mot manage to win, nor choose a lucky set of card.
Weird. Lol
actually this is a game of luck because Bingo is almost similar in betting in Lottery that the chance of winning is so much small than losing.
