Most Embarrassing Moment On The Caller's Seat

[Mickie31]

I don't know really I've never been a bingo caller, but I have called bingo by mistake before and I find that pretty embarrassing when you are sitting in a large bingo hall and everyone is looking at you and you have a false bingo. Yeah that's embarrassing.

Mickie, I have seen that happen to someone else, she looked so embarassed, I felt really sorry for her.

Yeah it is embarrassing I usually go bright red if that happens to me. It has happened a few times.

You're right, Green! My husband and I sing in the choir and one of the other singers has a very loud voice, and sometimes he'll try to sing in harmony and it goes way wrong. My hubby and I try not to look at each other because we know we'll start to laugh, and then everything would go haywire, as hubby is also playing guitar.!

I'm remembering one vacation bible school I attended as a little girl we got to play bingo everyday. One of the teachers would call, and she wanted every letter to have a bible reference as in "G" for "Genesis", but as the game went on she would be lost for a reference, and the dear lady would be standing, with the ball in her hand, trying to think of a holy reference. You can imagine what a room-full of little kids fidgeting and whispering entreaties of "come on, come on"!
It made it extra bad because ice cream followed bingo!

I have called bingo by mistake before and it can be very embarrassing. I remember the first time like it was yesterday. I have done it twice and hope it doesn't happen again.

That is one of the things I dread, I have avoided it so far and I restrict the number of cards I have so that I don't get too confused. I have seen it happen to someone else and I felt so sorry for her because she was so embarrassed.
