Bunco=Fail

Friday, June 6th, 2008

What is Bunco, you ask?  According to wikipedia:

images.jpgBunco (also Bunko and Bonko) is a parlour game played in teams with three dice. A winning throw in Bunco is to throw three of a kind of a specified number.

In recent years, the game has seen a resurgence in popularity in America, particularly among suburban women. As it is played today, Bunco is a social dice game involving 100% luck and no skill (there are no decisions to be made), scoring and a simple set of rules. Women who are part of a Bunco club take turns as the Bunco hostess, providing snacks, refreshments and the tables to set up the games.

See also:  The reason I’m not going to be at East End Fest tonight.  Sandy sprung a last minute Bunco date with the other women of Wisteria Lane.  Upon hearing this news, my teeth and fist clenched much like Seinfeld in the presence of Newman.  “Bunco.”

Have fun enjoying some beverages on the first real night of summer.  Really, tear it up.  I’ll be fine.

BTW, if there is a silver lining, and I’m really NOT complaining, Daddy gets to spend time with Leah which I never get to do as much as I’d like.

Hopefully, she’ll suggest a delicious meal out to either Red Lobster or The O.G.  Either way, Bunco=fail, My night=win!
