competitive bingo is awesome. i am now the proud owner of a purple bingo marker and plastic red bingo spotters.

(outside the bingo parlor, listmaker and youthlarge wait for friends to arrive.)

(after getting my bearrings and learning the ins and outs of how the game is played - it's more complex than you might think - it was time for a self-portrait.)

(youthlarge mistakes a bottle of ketchup for her dabbing marker.)
happy birthday listmaker!

i want to get the special chips with the metal rim so that you can use a magnetic want to pick up all the chips in one sweep.

when i get too old to be able to go bowling, i'm totally going to take up bingo on a serious basis. the atmosphere was very similar, right down to the snack bar (w/ waiter service!). i didn't even mind the people who were obviously annoyed with our presence - it wouldn't have felt right otherwise.
