*pulls out records* There have been

7 B's
4 I's
6 N's
2 G's
4 O's

The numbers were chosen at random; literally pulled from a hat! :) It's all probability; there are 75 possible numbers in BINGO, but we've only had 23 numbers, so even a small variation in favor of one letter or another (like the 7 B's) can look more dramatic than it actually is. Were we to draw for, say, 46 days, the distribution would likely look more consistent.

Or not. :) That's the fun (or angst!) of chance; we could, in theory, get 15 B's, 15, I's, and only one N during the month of March. :)
