It’s Balls Up Bingo and that’s exactly what you get: a wacky two hours of bingo, balls, drag, and pure mayhem.
The night begins with grabbing a drink, mingling with the fabulous Drag Queen host, Dean Misdale,and then joining a table and choosing your bingo card. Dean launches the show with the iconic I Will Survive, letting everyone know this is not going to be a quiet evening.
There are gays, lesbians, hen dos, lesbian hen dos and everyone in between. It’s a safe space for all. It’s tacky, camp fun from the start, with plenty of inward jokes about the LGBTQIA+ community for us to laugh at ourselves the whole way.
The first game kicks off with the first ball ‘48 – Tickle my prostate’ delivered deadpan from a straight-faced drag queen. It has the room erupting in laughter, setting the tone for the rest of the show.
There’s also plenty of breaks which makes room for live performances, singalongs of disco classics and a few opportunities to win a free drink.
Unfortunately, for one unlucky player, mistaking a downward line for a win came with consequences. The forfeit? Wearing a penis hat for the rest of the game while the entire room gleefully chanted “Dickhead!” in unison. Of course, it’s all in good jest and the woman wore that hat with pride.
If amazing prizes are your thing, Balls Up Bingo delivers… if you’re keen on rummaging through the ‘Kmart Bag of Shit’. And who isn’t?
Dig deep and you could walk away with a Dolly Parton shower sponge. And yes, I have googled to check these are still in stock. Dolly’s hair is the sponge, need I say more?
For a solid couple of hours of escapism into a world of gay anthems, cheering and laughter and where the bingo comes second to the chaos, this is your ticket.
