Bingo is a powerful entity, especially for–but not limited to–those in their twilight years. It is a way to gamble lightly without the potential risk of betting the deed to your house. Bingo is not just relegated to VFW halls either, as there are a handful of locations that have their games hosted by very funny and dazzling drag queens. There are plenty of places that host a Bingo game once in a while, but these are some locations that have games more frequently (daily for some).
