Meat Bingo: The Wild, Wondrous Dive Bar Ritual of Minnesota

"I see Grumpy’s as a cozy, chill neighborhood dive that’s been part of northeastern Minneapolis since 1908; on Sunday evenings Liz Schreiber hosts T-Bone Bingo, which she says gives people a last hurrah before the week and a shot at winning next Sunday’s dinner. The event is free to play (owner Pat Dwyer moved away from charging because of concerns about gambling), the co-hosts are described as sassy and entertaining, and the vibe feels like a mix of irreverence, acceptance, and kindness — more a slap on the back and a gentle hug than a serious gamble." - Rich Manning
