Tony May makes special guest appearance at Weird Bingo
Tony May, President for Life of St. Anastasia Bingo, (not shown at right) made a surprise visit to Weird Bingo last week. Dispelling rumors that he was lost, Tony arrived unannounced, made a few executive decisions, delegated and left. Newcomers and veteran Weird Bingo players were thrilled to see "the beloved leader" if for only a short moment. Promising to see everyone "in their dreams", Tony departed with little fanfare.
Let Stevie Wonder Park the Car
Yes it's time for the Weird Bingo Parking Awards. We would like to recognize the driver who's complete disregard for things like lines painted on the pavement and presence of other cars sets them apart from 99% of the other drivers on the road -- and even those driving on sidewalks. Kudos to this gal for most-creative parking!!
Where's Tony
Over the years WeirdBingo has had to improvise to cover for the unexpected absences of our President-for-Life. Here are some of the very good reasons why:

The Lure of WeirdBingo
Like a strange unseen force, WeirdBingo attracts people from all over -- including far-away and exotic Volo, Illinois. This trio found us online and thought YES I WILL GO TO BINGO. We salute their spirit of adventure. They survived the three-week journey and arrived hungry, a bit disoriented but ready to compete. And what you think -- they won! Way to go!
I hate this game, but I can't stop lovin' it
Face it: Bingo is a rough and tumble sport, a take-no-prisoners form of social aggression that pits pal against pal. Daughters vs. their Mothers; Mothers vs. muthers -- it's you against the world. But you're not a wimp. You play.
You sit there looking cool, waiting for one number. Just one. You wait -- barely breathing. Then you're best buddy calls bingo -- and that's the last thing you remember!!
A Lawyer, a Bride and a Pregnant Lady Walk into a Bingo Hall...
Ok it sounds like the set up for a bad joke, right? Well, it's actually true. Last week a Lawyer, a Bride and a Pregnant Lady walked into Weird Bingo at St. Anastasia. Brandie, Chrissy and Lauren are three friends at a crossroads. One is pregnant, one just graduated from law school and passed the bar, and the third is running off to Maui with her guyfriend to tie the knot. This called for something special to mark the occassion. Chrissy googled it and came up with Weird Bingo. The trio traveled an hour just to play. Was this the bonding experience they expected? Was it their rite of passage? Can they find now happiness at home, in the courts or in the sun, surf and sand? We may never know.
why WeirdBingo.com?
Why WierdBingo? Well why not? If the shoe fits ..., right? Our weekly train wreck of fun deserves a name that's as catchy as Swine Flu and just as memorable. Easier to spell than "StAnastasiaBingo.com" and dead-on balls accurate (it's an industry term) when it comes to describing what it's like there on Wednesday nights, WeirdBingo.com just sticks in your head like gum on your shoe. What are you doing Wednesday night? Why sit home when you could sit here?
Coming Soon:
Look for WeirdBingoWear and official WeirdBingo Merchandise available soon -- just in time for Saint Cayetano Day.
