I play Bingo with real cards with friends during my childhood days and it's always fun. Never tried on a machine.

Have always enjoyed since a young age going with my father. Would play at Churches or firehouses occasionally. They had a decent permanent daily one in Pa near where Coach lives where we went to their New Years Eve twice for something different. I had always wanted to go to one of those huge ones in Foxwoods where you win a car and shit. Never made it though. We have gone to a few Indian reservations but they are just ok. I can't keep up with the manual playing anymore and like Bobby stick to the computers or do Computer with small paper package to make it more interesting.

how much is the entry fee for each game and what's the max pay out?

 

[DarkRaver Camper]

Same, church bazaars when I was younger. When there with a girlfriend or some female you are courting it was always a good move. We’d have fun playing a few games, fooling around.

the skanks I just wanted to f*** weren’t bazaar worthy.

I remember instant bingo as well. About 4 tickets for $1. Top prize of $25, lol. When you are young, at least me, I didn’t recognize it was such a rip off.

It varies property to property but usually you can play between 12 and 14 games per a session. You could spend as little as $4 or so if you just get a card to daub. Keep in mind that’s just giving you one card where people on a machine may have 60 to 70 cards so your odds of winning are a lot less. Payouts can vary but usually $50/$100/$150 Depending on the color card.

This might help you understand it a little bit better. It’s usually the same pretty much everywhere out here for the most part

I forgot. I’ve played at Bally’s and resorts about a dozen times. It’s a good change of pace for your trip/gambling.

I never won anything or nor did my guests.

The best part of it was people watching. Also the gasps, moans and groans when someone yells bingo.:

Remember those church ladies being so nice until you yelled bingo. Winning once in 1 night than just a couple dirty looks. Win 2 plus times look the fvck out.

[Hunch]

You were playing 66 cards there?

What did each card cost? How much could you win?

lucked into a job as a bingo caller at the local church down the street for Thurs and Suns in Jr High.

those people took that shit serious. Mostly welfare crowd.

if you screwed up and called an N number during an X bingo, they'd be ready to throw stuff at you.

was great money for a kid, and the last game would always be a 500 dollar cover all, with a bonus for winning within a certain # of balls. if they didn't win it carried over to next night. I got some big tips from happy winners.

Had to quit due to the smoke inhalation over 3-4 hrs must have been like smoking 2 packs. I was worried it was going to impact my athletics.

I would never play though

pass

Know what you mean. Clothes reeked of smoke and always woke up with a sore throat next day.

 

[Enikk]

These days you almost need the computer not to mention all the side games during each game.

It was so bad sometimes that I couldn't close my eyes to sleep without them burning.

I'd clean out the bathroom sink and then fill with cool water and just dip my head in with my eyes open and "soak" my eyeballs to get the film off

I'd come in the door and my mom would say she could smell me from 30 feet away in the living room after a few secs.

200 people chain smoking in a tiny gym in the winter. just brutal
