Well that was certainely a memorable night!
The whole night was foreign to me and it was a lot of fun!!
We arrive, not sure what to expect, but once there even our uncertainties didn't qualify.
Complete silence. Massive hall. Old people everywhere. Intennnnnse. I managed to suffocate a laugh.
We find a table right at the back and desperately ask the veterans (old ladies running the show) for help. Thank goodness for them because I was under the impression that if you got a line- it was bingo. So I nearly yelled it out, when I was informed that you had to follow the pattern on the screen.... X M Y 2 lines...etc....
I dont' know how to describe this, but I will do my best. Picture a big hall, that echos. Add 1960's decor. About 150 elderly, another 50 people overweight, pure silence except the bingo guy (his story is coming) and nacho's where the cheese comes from a machine. Imagine that !! Machine cheese !!! Its like a different planet.
The bingo guy was almost too hard to handle. I couldn't deal. Every time he said "B 2" I laughed. he sounded a mix between Mr. Garrison from Southpark, a character from Little Britain and a dopehead. And then to make matters worse, there was another game that involved balls (that we didn't know about) and everything was quiet, and intense. Then some old guy yells out "Balls".
Kelle and I lost all composure at that point, and then to top it off the Bingo guy says "Balls are called" in his dopey voice. Tears streaming down my face from (almost) silent laughter.
None of us won anything, however Allie was 1 dab away from winning $350. Overall a fun filled night !
