Chico's Bar チコーズバー　　　

Wow, Bingo night at Chico's went beyond our imaginations - a packed, rowdy house had the tension at a high-level as prizes were dished out to more than a few lucky souls. A complimentary tequila started the night off for all and from there, whether it was an X, a box, 4 corners, and finally, the end of the night Black-out for the i-pod, there were a lot of laughs and a few nervous moments as it came down to the wire. Many thanks to Esprit Mouton (the excellent restaurant down the road from Chico's which, by the way, isn't French) for the extra prizes. Bottles of tequila, posters, fireworks and candy, T-shirts, lunch tickets, drink tickets and more went to lucky winners and, in the end, a walk-in from off the street (Nanako) took home the grand prize in a rock-paper-scissors play-off as we had three bingos at the same time for the i-pod. A disappointed but good-sported Ashley was the runner-up and had to drown her sorrows with the runner-up bottle. Great calls by Chico who was rather hoarse the next day, and most of all thanks to all of you who came out and made the event a success. Until next time - winter bingo, we may even give away a car.
