Mad Max Bingo

I went with a group of first time bingo-​ers and let me offer some first timer suggestions
–arrive before the game starts. Like a good 20min to get your cards and acclimate with the rules and games
–bring cash, its cash only
–bring your game face. It’s a legit bingo hall, no joking or messing around here. People are there for the money honey
–it’s fast! Which is fun, but only get the amount of cards you can play.
–a little goes a long way… you purchase books of games that last the whole evening. Multiple games per page and more chances to win
–lots of pull lottery games.
Had fun but it was pretty intense for what I was thinking would be a light hearted birthday fun night. It’s definitely legit though!

Ladies and gentleman! Step outside your bar-​hopping box, get that nose out of the air and step foot in to Mad Max Bingo! You will have a blast!
I planned an ‘outing’ with some friends that would get us out of our normal routine and got us to play bingo. Walking in the door, we were laughing at ourselves. We were so out of place but we didn’t care at all! Everyone is welcome and they loved having us. We thought were walking in to B-5’s and N-42’s but little did we know that the game of Bingo is a circus of numbers and playing catch up! We had no idea! Walking up to the counter was quite the experience. They had to walk me through everything but they were so nice in doing so. They let me pick the color bingo dobber I wanted and gave me a Membership Card! I was so excited but there was no time to ride that wave. Numbers were being called out and with each number was my chance to win BINGO!
Thanks goodness there was a very kind lady who helped me understand everything that was going on. There are so many, many more ways to win BIngo than I ever could have imagined. I consider myself a pretty smart person, but I felt so behind compared to everyone else. Lesson learned: I’ll get there early next time to set up and learn everything.
There were so many distractions too. I’m too competitive for this game of luck, but there were so many other games going on while Bingo was being called. There’s a game called Layer Cake and Red Hoarders. I still don’t know what these are but my friend Becky won $ 300 playing one. Sounds promising.
All in all, this was one of my favorite memories of 2009. I absolutely recommend Bingo at Mad Max’s.
