Sherry and I had both seen an even listed on Facebook for a Bunco night at a local winery, and I went ahead and signed us up as soon as I saw it.
It’s a good thing I did as it was limited to 12 people and they sold out within a few hours.
I’m not happy about this picture—I look really fat in it. Never mind that, we did have a good time. The admission price included a charcuterie cup. It was super cute with the dice picks.
They also gave us a bottle of water, but I ordered a glass of Cabernet to go with mine.
It turns out no one there had ever played bunco, and they looked up some rules on the internet and printed them out. It was a version neither Sherry nor I had ever played, but we were game to try it. Guess who won? I did! My prize was this wine bag:
It had a bottle of one of their wines
and this little box
which contained a wine bottle stopper with a dice
and a $15 gift certificate.
That’s a really generous prize. They are planning to have bunco on a regular basis, ans I would definitely go again.
Oh that looks like fun! Your prize is fantastic. Do you like the wine that was included? I am a white zin gal and really should branch out, but I've never acquired a taste for reds any other type. I kind of liked a sip of a grigio I tasted once, but I don't want to buy a whole bottle in case I really don't like it. Can you tell I'm a real wine connoisseur? ;) I played Bunco with a group when we lived in Katy. I sucked at it, but I loved the food - lol!!!
ReplyDeleteIt’s a great prize! I haven’t tried the wine. The label says it is a rose’ Cabernet blend. I like dry wines like Cabernet, and I’m hoping the rose’ doesn’t make it too sweet.
