BLINGO
Wanna hear the saddest story in the ENTIRE WORLD? I bet you do!
So there I was, playing BLINGO (a high-stakes bingo game) with approximately 200 other people in the cafeteria at my school. Of all the big prizes advertised (a PSP, digital camera, video ipod) I was truly there for the Tiffany's necklace. I really wanted that necklace. After two hours of INTENSE bingo playing, the Tiffany's necklace was put on the table. I had very good luck that round, but I knew I wouldn't win because the last two winners were from my table and COME ON what is the probability of that? WELL I WON. I was so excited I practically screamed BLINGO! Unfortunately another girl also had blingo at that same time. The normal way to settle disputes in this sort of atmosphere is through a game I like to call rocks-paper-fuckingunfair-scissors. We duked it out, two outta three. The first three we threw were the same... two rocks and a paper. Then she won one. I won one. It was crazy, 200 people watching us. I was shaking, she was shaking. Rocks.... Paper... Scissors... SHOOT. And thats when she threw the scissors, and I the paper. Tragic.
Of course, as a consolation prize I got the Hallmark vibrating lion that has a heart for a mane. At least I'll never have to drink again... that lion will provide endless hours of fun.
There were smaller prizes offered too, most gift certificates and movies. I feel sorry for whoever got the $20 to the dry cleaners.
