In reading the Sunday paper this morning, I came across an article about Bingo. You know, the game that has been labeled, "The Senior-citizen Recreation" -It's true, I read that in the New York Times last year! Anyway, so the article mentioned how recently, the "older" patrons of "The Heights Hall" in Denton, Texas have been invaded (so to speak) by a cluster of younger and hipper patrons. It seems that college kids and thirty-something singles, have taken an interest in playing Bingo on Friday nights. Something that is just unheard of! It started with just a few kids now and again but soon they were coming in big groups, ready to mingle and play the game! Could it be that the masses have grown tired of the bar scene and are merely scoping out new venues? lol Or could it be that they are genuinely interested in playing the board game with a bunch of elderly people?
My take? I think the $500.00 prize money has something to do with it! I mean, that would entice me enough to visit at least once.
"G-44"
"Bingo!"
