Candle Lit Bingo

This post is to further understand the personality of bingo players, as mentioned in the previous post. One time at bingo, we had a storm come through and lost all of the power in the building. When we gave the players the option to return their cards and get their money back, you would think World War III was just announced!! The players were outraged! What ended up happening is that instead of getting their money back and coming some other time, the customers went home and got candles, flash lights, and lanterns. The building had a plate glass front on it, and the players pulled theirs cars up to front of the building and left their headlights on so we could see to play bingo. I have been in this business for sometime, and I still get amazed at the people that play bingo. I have to say we have the most loyal and best customers in the entertainment industry. This is what makes them a completely other breed. Just another day at bingo.
