Posted 4\/24\/12 – <\/em>Twice a year, in April and October, the Sierra Madre Rose Float Association holds a fundraiser known as Legendary Bingo. \u00a0A raucous evening of grown up entertainment, Legendary Bingo is usually (as Saturday) hosted by drag queen Belle Aire and her assistant Bingo Boy (Jeff). \u00a0Raffles are drawn, and prizes are given to the winners (who can’t collect until they’ve run around the room being pelted by the losers, who throw their crumpled up bingo cards at them while yelling “All the way down and all the way back, pelt him, pelt him). \u00a0The prizes are donated by local businesses. \u00a0There’s pizza, popcorn and candy, soft drinks and beer and wine. \u00a0Saturday night in the Sierra Madre Room, the crowd was large enough that they had to hastily set up extra tables outside the back door on the patio. \u00a0A good time was had by all, including Snooki Greger and Mama Pete, two women in their nineties who have attended EVERY Legendary Bingo Fundraiser there has been (I think they said nineteen?) over the years. \u00a0Enjoy the photos below.<\/p>\n
