Sit down, shut up, and play bingo!
Rick Allison has been calling the monthly OUTrageous Bingo for 27 years, which raises money for the Shepherd Wellness Community and the Pittsburgh Equality Center. Rick takes us through the origins of this LGBTQ Pittsburgh institution beginning on December 6, 1997, the origins of the opening bingo pledge, the unique games played, and the guest bingo callers throughout the years.
OUTrageous Bingo is a monthly drag queen bingo run completely by community volunteers that draws crowds from far and wide.
The next OUTrageous Bingo is Saturday, December 14, at Rodef Shalom at 7:30 PM. Tickets at outrageousbingopgh.org
