Bingo Fun Trivia Game.........

You love to play Bingo but do you know your bingo trivia?

We are going to put you to the test!

Q: Who invented the first Bingo card combinations and how many different card number combinations were initially invented? Rumor has it this person went insane afterwards!

I would have to google the answer so I'm going to wait in case someone smart LBB'er already knows the answer  ;)

I have no idea :)

Amazingly enough Lips - I was looking at bingo trivia yesterday and I recall it was 60,000 combinations or it could be 6000 - one of the two I'm sure.

This should be interesting.... I don't have any idea about that stuff.  :-[

I have absolutely no clue about that! But would like to hear the answer!

Hmmm, key is they went insane. This is probably way off the wall but I'll take guess, Van Gogh and 5 combos?

Yay blue! It's 6,000 and Carl Leffler created the first combination of cards.

Ok here is another one.

Q: What do they call Bingo in Australia?

I didn't have the idea that they call Bingo differently in Australia! I love this thread!

Hmmm, I actually thing I know this one! Housie? I worked with a guy from Australia and I think I heard him say it a time or two.

You could be right fried-eggs.  I'll go with housie too.

Hmm.... That's interesting. I have to admit that I've never heard of Housie before.

Soooo, they shout Housie instead of Bingo??

Yess you are right! It's called housie in Australia!

Since we are on a Australia kick here is one that is pretty easy..........let's see who can guess it first.

What are Slots called in Australia?

I really enjoy this thread! Didn't know that Aussies have special words for Bingo and now Slots!

Maybe Slotie :)
