Spring Bunco -- April & May

Sorry for the delay in getting our April Bunco information to you.... but... better late than never... right?!?!

Due to illness, baseball games and just plain, old busy lives, only 9 ladies were able to attend the event on Tuesday, April 20, at Toni's home on Rolling Hills Drive. But the group had a fantastic night playing with "ghosts."


Veteran Bunco-player, Brandi, took the title for "Most Losses."

Susan scooped up "Most Buncos" and "Most Wins"


...and Christy B. won the prize for "Most Wins."


Wait a second...perhaps Christy won second place? Ooops. That's what this blog writer gets for not attending April Bunco! (Can anyone clarify?!?!)


May's Bunco took place at Cara's house on Oaklyn Hills Drive last night, May 18. Twelve ready-to-play ladies were in attendance, with many of the "original" Bunco players on hand. But the newcomers definitely had the advantage. Beginners luck? Perhaps. However you want to look at it, our new Oaklyn Hills' resident, Kristin, took the coveted "Most Wins."

Paige (and baby!) claimed "Most Buncos."


And Deidra (a Bunco newbie) had the honor of claiming the "Most Losses" title.


The evening was full of howls, laughs and shrieks of victory. It was also riddled with the dreaded "snake eyes" (rolling three 1's and wiping out ALL your team's points). Cathryn actually rolled snake eyes as she was explaining the concept to someone... immediately after they had rolled three 1's. Snake eyes were popping up all over the place! But Christy C. led the crowd with 4... or perhaps 5...? The ladies eventually stopped counting in fear that they would curse the whole group! Nonetheless, it was enough to make the group consider a special prize for such an impressive feat.

June's Bunco event is still to be determined. A "theme night" has been suggested, so keep your eyes open for details... and for pictures. There's always "Amazons vs. Pygmies," as this photo might suggest!


OK.... Don't get short with me! That "Amazons vs. Pygmies" idea is actually head and shoulders above the rest. No tall tales here. We're actually a little short on ideas right now. It's no small matter. In fact, the long of the short of it is: we don't know the theme or the date as of right now. ;)
