CultureIn Britain bingo used to be thought of as a game for older people but is now popular also with the young. In the 1970s many large buildings such as cinemas were converted into bingo halls. It is traditional to have special names for numbers as they are read out. For example, 66 is 'clickety-click' and 22 is 'two little ducks'. Sometimes the numbers are produced by a computer and the old names are not used. It is also possible to play bingo online.
