At Twin Falls people socialize and have fun with Bingo
August 30, 2005
People at Twin Falls Senior Center play a serious game of bingo but simultaneously enjoy it, chit chat with friends, win a little money and brag. In a fun filled atmosphere, players gather with popcorns, coffee cups and talked freely during intermissions.
At play, they don't make any pens or chits. The cards are casino green in color and equipped with pink plastic covers that slide over numbers when they are called. Black, a native of North Ireland who shifted to Twin Falls many years back said he came to play bingo in order to get acquainted with the crowd. People sit and talk and the majority of them are elders. Since most of them live alone after their partner's death, coming to meet the bingo group provides them entertainment, fun and some money to carry home.
