Where can I enjoy a bingo game in Laurel, Maryland?

What happens during a game of bingo?

Once the game starts, you'll have to wait for the next round, so don't be late! You'll need to collect your bingo cards and find a seat before the game starts. Each bingo card is unique. It features a 5x5 grid, filled with numbers between 1 and 75. The bingo caller will tell you the winning pattern- that is, which boxes in your grid you'll need to mark to win- before the game starts. Then the game begins! The bingo caller draws numbers and calls them out, and the players mark the number if they have it on their grid. The first player who marks every box for the winning pattern must shout BINGO before the next number is called to claim their prize. Then there will usually be a short break, followed by a new game with fresh cards. Eyes down!
