Default Bingo Sayings And Meanings

Where do the bingo sayings and meanings come from? I know that Kelly's Eye. Number 1 comes from:

It was when the British army were playing a popular variation of bingo. It was the only form of gambling that was allowed then, but as for the complete definition I don't know.

That's a good question. I wonder if there really is an actual origin for the sayings or how you would find that information out?

I found out about Kelly's Eye by searching Google and I was hoping that someone might be able to find out information about the other saying's. I am sure if we look hard enough that the information must be out there. Did you know that half the sayings we use in every day language have come from somewhere sometimes it turns out they are Bible sayings. I am sure there must be expanations for the Bible sayings that there are. If anyone knows then please inform us. Thanks for the reply and I am looking forward to hearing from anyone who knows more.

I am not to sure what sayings you guys mean. Do you mean things like the kite game? I have heard of Kelly's eye though.
