Bingo is a popular card game that originated in Great Britain in the early twentieth century. The name “bingo” is derived from the British term “bingo card,” which referred to a piece of paper with a list of numbers on it.
The modern game of bingo is played with small, square, paper cards with either 26 or 52 squares. Players compete by calling out bingo numbers as they see them, and the player with the highest number called wins the current round of play.
The modern game of bingo got its start in 1876, when a group of British army officers got together to play a game of chance called “Twenty-One.” The game was so popular that it eventually became known as “bingo.
” In 1934, bingo became an official game at the World’s Fair in Chicago. Bingo has since become one of the most popular card games in the world, and is played by people of all ages and backgrounds.
Bingo is a simple and fun game that can be enjoyed by anyone.
