It’s serious shit. Don’t go there thinking your going to have a nice quiet time with some little old ladies. There’s money to be won, and if you f@#$ around those little old ladies will boot your arse out the door!! What were you thinking Johanna??

Didn't know it was classified as a sport however I do not like it. However on saying this I have a young sister 59 yrs who is a Down's Syndrome and in a nursing home because of constant care. The seniors in there love this so much and it is an outing for them as they so often do not get many visitors. All very sad really and it does not take much to go in and seem them but that is another subject.

Never a sport but it’s just a fun time with some of the nicknames used. Legs 11, 88 2 fat ladies, old maid ?, and a few more I forget.

Bingo is just another pastime for some people and a choice whether one participates or not

I don't think that Bingo classifies as a sport.

Can you find somewhere where its not speedy? I wouldn't like that kinda speed either. Less pleasurable and more 'gotta win' which isn't as much fun.

I used to go years ago and then, as so many others have said, it all became about the worship of the World's newest Deity: Money! Its no fun now.

It used to be fun but now it’s like a chore and all about the money. The fun is gone, the social side is gone...bah!!!

I guess its good for fundraising or charity. It seems like no fun to me at least. But why not if you like it..

Never, it is not a sport. Then again, Poker and hot dog eating are considered sport when they are not. Golf is considered a sport when it is not. I believe if the activity does not require physical exertion, then it is not a sport, it is just a game.
