LINGO FOR BINGO NUMBERS ONE TO 90 & CHAT LINGO FOR ONLINE BINGO GAMING
A unique set of nicknames for each bingo number called has developed over the years in the game of Bingo. Bingo callers in traditional bingo halls would use these nicknames or rhymes when calling out each number, and these nicknames and or rhymes became known as bingo lingo. Used less frequently nowadays, they were widely used at one time and there were many regional variations of bingo calls to be found in bingo halls throughout the world.
Each bingo number from 1-90 has a bingo nickname or rhyme associated with it. Some bingo lingo is very simple, such as ‘Four and Nine’: 49. Other nicknames are more obscure, such as ‘Pick and Mix’: 26. The nickname will often rhyme with the number, for example ‘Tom’s Tricks’: 6. other bingo calls don’t rhyme but have a logical reason behind them. Some even have a biblical background. For example, ‘The Lord is my Shepherd’: 23. This refers to Psalm 23 in the Bible.
Some bingo numbers have both a rhyming nickname and a more logical nickname. The number eight for example, can be referred to as both ‘Garden Gate’ (which rhymes) and ‘One Fat Lady’ (because the shape looks like two halves of a large woman). Some prefer these more logical nicknames, such as ‘Kelly’s Eye’ for number one (so called because of the one eyed Australian gangster Ned Kelly) because they are unique and easier to remember. Rhyming nicknames can be difficult to remember. For example, ‘Duck and Dive’ represents 25 but just as easily rhymes with 35.
