By Glenny Brock

What\’92s better than bingo? Nothing really, but bingo for charity makes you feel good about gambling, so maybe that\’92s better! If you enjoy a fine game of random number selection, come support Birmingham AIDS Outreach and play a game of bingo! This almost 500-year-old game can get you a whole lot of coin \’97 prizes at BAO Bingo range from $50 to $250 a game. The round scheduled to start at 7 p.m. tonight is sponsored by the Mystic Krewe of Apollo and will feature Dr. Larry Kontri and Mr. Gary Jones as BingoBallCaller and emcee, respectively. New to tonight’s game will be the SHOUT! Hot Ball and Jackpot. If you can\’92t make it this Monday, catch BAO Bingo the first Monday of every month. The entrance fee is $15, and game cards are $1 a piece. The game starts at 7 p.m. (doors at 6), and it\’92s held at 205 32nd St. South. If you\’92re under 19, stay home.
