Bingo
Euphoria -- Let's Play Bingo is an exciting book about the myriad of
funny things that happen while you are playing the game. The book is
also a "How To Book" and describes play-by-play of America's
most popular and fascinating game. The beginning of the book relates
an accounting of the history of the game and reveals why millions of
people play Bingo. The author relies on his more than 40 years of experience
at playing the game and his hundreds of interviews with players over
that extended period of time recording and taking notes about their
attitudes and feelings for the game. The section on "Funny Things
Happen at Bingo" is a hilarious accounting of incidents, freak
accidents and just a potpourri of things that can only happen at Bingo
and only reiterated by a fellow Bingo player. Not to leave out any of
the frustrations, they too are recorded. “Your most embarrassing
moments” has an entire section that will keep you laughing as
you search the book for more. The seasoned Bingo player will truly relate
to this chapter. For the uninitiated, the game is packed with detailed,
down-to-earth explanations of "How to Play the Game." There
is a graphic representation of each game played and compiled in alphabetized
order for convenience and understanding. The book even has a list of
ethical behavior for Bingo players and workers so everyone can enjoy
the game. The author didn't forget the business people who run the games
and, accordingly, has compiled a list of sound business practices for
them to adhere to and a chart displaying differences between local Bingo
and Casino Bingo. Included also is an appendix that lists Bingo Jargon
and Terms. This book was written for experienced players, novices and
business operators, and is a must book for all. |
