Bunco Night

June 6th, 2008 at 05:22 pm

Tonight is bunco night with the girls - dinner, wine, and chitchat and bunco. We meet once a month - $10 is a good price for a good meal and enjoyment with friends. I win some money a few times a year so I just about break even. I especially enjoy the evening because I rarely get to socialize with other moms. I work with men almost exclusively (construction work) and it is sure nice to have a change. Sometimes we donate the cost to a needy parent at our school - we did have one single mother who was struggling to make ends meet (no support from the father of the children). We rotate the meetings at each member's home. DH and kids not allowed back in the house until at least 10:30 p.m.! In fact, DH is always asking what exactly we talk about. I tell him that it is a secret and that I would have to kill him if I tell him. : ) I'll let you know if I win anything tonight!!!

    Love Bunco! My mom, her mom and her sisters have had the same group of 16 woment for the past 25 years! They are all still together, and play once a month. I get to sub every once in a while! Fun!

    Bunco sounds like such fun. I wish I knew more about it.

    Bunco is a dice game (uses 3 dice). There is NO skill required, so that makes it even more fun! There are several variations of it. We play with 12 people in 3 groups of 4. Each group is split into a team of 2. There is a head table, middle table, and the butt table. The first round we roll for "ones." For each one that you roll a point is earned. If you roll three ones in a row, that is called a bunco! The round ends when a team at the head table reaches 21 points. A bunco is worth 21 points. We play "Win" or "Lose" for each round rather than counting points. That is much easier to keep track of when drinking wine! Smile Google "bunco" on the internet for more information. It is fun!
