Anyones Bingo!

Anyones Bingo!
Back when bingo was new in my hometown, I played bingo every Sunday night. At that time they used the hard cards and they had racks to put your bingo cards on so they weren't flat on table.... well one Sunday night we were playing and I wasn't getting any numbers so I was spending most of my time looking around. Well I saw a card which only needed one number... all of a sudden they called the number and no one bingoed... so I yelled bingo and raised my hand. The bingo worker came over and I sent him to 3 tables away to pay the bingo. The lady didn't know she had bingo. She didn't even give me a tip...

BINGO ~~ ODD BEHAVIOR
What a strange world bingo is, the behavior of some players has to be seen to be believed. If you were a fly on the wall these are some the antics you might see.
Firstly ~ the precise way in which people place their equipment ~~ Cards in the center with their dabbers all lined up above.
Secondly ~ their favorite lucky charm, mascot or some other strange object is placed just to the left just in reach, ready to be PATTED ~ SLAPPED ~ TURNED FACE AWAY (in disgrace) and occasionally even KISSED.
Thirdly ~ Woe betide anyone who dares to sit in another's favorite seat. This is a HUGE SIN and can cause a fearful din, or even worse ~ ssh, I'll whisper it, Come to blows.
Last of all ~ The black looks, scowls and the odd hiss or two if you should dare to cough, splutter, sneeze or even choke while the numbers are being called.
MY OWN WORST HATE IT IS:- The player who talks out loud when they are waiting for just one number. For e.g. Come on SAY IT, SAY IT or they say the number they are waiting for, OVER & OVER AGAIN. I usually find myself praying that the winning number will not be theirs.
