I'm bummed I missed it too. I ended up working all weekend and pretty much didn't look up from my computer until Sunday night. I'm definitely interested in future stuff too, though!

No. Some guy from Michigan won the first round. The second round, the damn chicken sh*t on the line...house wins! I bought 2 numbers for that round and was feeling lucky.

I hear ya'. I got hit with that cold, sinus infection Thursday. This on top of my ragweed allergy. Totally ruined my Friday and Saturday nights. Really glad I didn't buy ACL tickets. Nothing worse than a cold when it's warm out...

I'm sure there will be further get-togethers in the future. Everybody seemed to get a long...no squabbling or anything

Ah, but for me work IS play (most of the time, anyway).

But it ain't chickensh*t bingo!

(I'm so glad that astrisk is there. Otherwise I might have to, gasp, read a swear word!)

I won!!! $114.00!! Twange, you should have stuck around, I was buying! I must have played that game about a dozen times and finally I won!

Hopefully y'all will meet us out the next time. It was great fun. Twange and Mrs. Twange (his wife is so nice!), AGA, BellestarofTexas and me all joined up at Ginny's. It was great meeting y'all ...Can't wait to move down. Just dropped the price of my house today by $5000.00, so maybe some offers will come in now. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

OMG!
Congrats to you!
How come it was only 114, and not 150? Who cares, it was still more than you walked in with

YEAH for CS Bingo!

Actually, I found out that there is a "line" ticket and another out-of-stater won that round! There is also an intersection ticket so if the poop lands on the intersection of 4 blocks, that person wins. The house doesn't win at all...something I didn't know!

Hope y'all enjoyed my friend and singer/musician extraordinaire, Dale Watson, for your listening pleasure at Chicken Sh*t Bingo!

Thanks! It was great to meet you. There are 54 numbers, plus line, intersection, orange ticket (the grid is outlined in orange paint. So that totals 57 possible chances to win...double that and it's $114.00 since each ticket is $2.00. The house doesn't keep any of the money--another thing I didn't know!
