Our First Bunko

So we finally got it together and had our first Bunko! Christine H. hosted at her MIL's club house which was PeRfEcT with 3 retro tables fitted with padding (so the dice don't roll off) and 4 old school chairs on wheels at each table...the set up could not be more perfect. Christine H. made a delicious spread and Kerri brought a bottle of wine which 4 of us split, the four who had the most fun I might add...LOL.

We were greeted by a gushing sprinkler which created a fantastic waterfall that blocked the path to the door! Poor Michelle in her sexy post op orthopedic shoe had to carefully maneuver her way through the flooded pathway but she made it just fine.


The night started out a bit quiet and on more of a serious tone as this was a first for many of us. We had to focus on our rolls and carefully monitor the numbers on the dice trying to remember what "mark" we were on.

Woo Hoo...B-u-N-k-O!!! These are the ladies who hit Bunko...some more than others (notice the stickers). Christine H. brought Halloween stickers for us to put on each time we got a Bunko and we also have a totally terrificly tacky tiara that we pass around to each lady as she Bunkos. In the words of Christine D. as she hit the last Bunko of the night, "The crown feels good doesn't it!"












As the evening progressed we began to loosen up and have fun...



And the WINNERS are...
Claudia for Most Wins(15), she even had an entire round of all wins!
Judie for Most Losses(18), she said she wanted to accentuate the positive and focus on her 6 wins though...tee hee. Hey Judie, it pays to be a looser too!
Christine D. for the Last Bunko and Me, Shea; for Most Bunkos(4)...in case you are wondering, YEP...I brought my own special dice and cheated...darn it you caught me ;op

I would say it was a successful first Bunko and now that we know what to do next month will be even that much better!
