I know a phrase "Eyes down." Is "a full mouse" below a pun to "a full mouth"? Does it mean that they try to win bingo and to make their mouth full with prizes?
What do rodents say when they play bingo?
'Eyes down for a full mouse'!

hiromichi -
Again....for a pun to work (as much as any pun can....groan, remember?)
there should be an easily recognizable connection between the words.
That being said...and not knowing much about Bingo terms.....
I'll take a shot in the dark...
"Eyes" = plural of the letter "I"
"full mouse" = (my guess)..."full house"
A full house would be a winning hand in Poker (a card game) and might also be used in Bingo when one has a winning card.
Any Bingo buffs out there in the peanut gallery?
Hang in there....Philo |
