A four-foot high bingo caller is set to become a big man in the world of online gaming after becoming the mascot for an Internet bingo craze sweeping the nations young. Jason Owen, 25, is the inspiration behind www.freebingohunter.com, which is cashing in on the growth in young women affected by the credit crunch staying in to play free online bingo. While bingo used to be the main hobby of the 60 plus blue rinse brigade, 48 per cent of new players are 18-34 year old women attracted by 's163;1million prizes. Instead of visiting dreary bingo halls and spending cash they can ill afford, tens of thousands of women are logging on to play free bingo on their mobiles, at the gym or from the comfort of their home computers.

A former Bingo Hall Caller of the Year finalist Jason, said: Women of whatever shape or size love bingo and online bingo gives them the chance to carry on their busy lives while socialising and winning prizes. In the last six months the online bingo market has grown by 80 per cent with the industry now worth over a billion pounds a year. According to the National Bingo Association four out of five of the three million people playing bingo are women.

The company backing Jason, will soon be setting up a second web site aptly named bingominis.com aimed not at little people but for those who like to play shorter bingo games.

Like every big star little Jason Owen even has his own groupies Jason'ss Bingo Bunnies, said: The Bunnies love freebingohunter because it helps them find the best value free bingo games and prizes all on one web site. Jason, who is also a licensed bouncer in his spare time, added: The bunnies were the ones who spurred me on to go for my dream. We may be in a recession but bingo has bucked the trend since the days of the Romans. While bingo halls maybe closing online bingo is here to stay. I'sd bet my hat on it!
