Announcer: Ladies and germs, welcome to Veggie Bingo. Grab a free veggie dog or hot dog, throw down for some brewskies, and let’s get started.

May I suggest upgrading to six cards for $5? Proceeds go to NeighborSpace, a nonprofit that preserves open space in the city. It pays to give, people.

Spins ball blower

Announcer: The first number is B12 — the vitamin ball. Do I hear any bingos?

Spins

Announcer: Ah, the Travolta ball — G55 — stayin’ alive, baby.

Player: Bingo!

Announcer: Let’s see … B1, I22 (quack, quack), O75 (the grandfather ball), G47. It’s a bingo!

Winners pick from today’s donated prizes: hot sauce made from Humboldt Park peppers, Hull-House Kitchen pickles, Chicago Honey Co-Op honey, and produce from Irv & Shelly’s Fresh Picks.

Didn’t get lucky tonight? We’ll be back next week.

I suggest you bin-go.
