Bingo-go, and other tales

Balls

Balls. Oh yes.

Bingo-go is a game for two or more players, set in the gogo bars of Bangkok. That said, it could certainly be adapted for the soapie massage parlours. That adaptation is left as an exercise for the reader.

The rules of Bingo-go are as follows:

  • Each player will receive a standard Bingo card. These can be generated and printed for free at this website. A 5×5 grid is recommended.
  • When a player notices a gogo girl wearing a badge number that appears on his bingo card, he may barfine and engage in carnal relations with her. He is then permitted to mark that number on his card.
  • The game is expected to last several days, and several outings. Twenty-five girls in one night is just silly.
  • Off-duty personnel are not permitted to be used in the game - the girl must be observed by at least one other player to be bar-fined whilst wearing the matching badge number.
  • A player may barfine multiple girls simultaneously, but each must be a required number on his card.
  • There is no advantage to barfining multiple girls wearing the same number.
  • The winner will be the first player to legitimately mark every number on his bingo card.

Variations:

  • If a barfined girl is wearing the number of the player’s house, apartment or other dwelling-place, then carnal relations must be engaged in at that dwelling-place, rather than in short-time premises.
  • On a player’s birthday, he is obliged to barfine and engage with any and every girl wearing his age on her badge.
  • If a player observes a series of girls, in the same bar, at the same time, whose badge numbers spell out his telephone number, he may barfine and engage the entire group to win the game.

The Bargirl Grapevine

A friend visited Bangkok recently, and was astounded to receive a text message from a gogo girl, admonishing him for visiting Nana Disco, when he’d only been in there for two minutes.

At the time, I chuckled and warned him that the Bangkok Bargirl Grapevine is far more efficient than the internet for transmitting information instantly.

But even I was surprised when the same friend, now in the UK, informed me exactly what I’d been up to in Bangkok the night before, courtesy of his girl’s network of spies.

The Bangkok Bargirl Grapevine has gone intercontinental. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Bar news

I can now confirm the rumour I reported a couple of weeks ago, that Nana Plaza’s Cathouse bar has cancelled all of its all-you-can-drink offers. The place is now surely doomed.

Guess Bar have moved into new, larger premises near the Rajah Hotel on Sukhumvit Soi 4. The bar is now located in the south-west corner of the Rajah car-park, close to the Metro Bar, round the corner from Hillary 2.

For the uninitiated, if you’re walking up Soi 4 from Sukhumvit, go past the Nana Hotel car park and on to the next car park on your right-hand side. Guess Bar is located where Nana Disco would be located, if the Rajah car park was the Nana car park. Clear? Good.

Guess Bar offers, amongst other things, very comfy chairs, Beerlao for ฿110, and games of pool for ฿20. The personnel play like girls.

    BBB, this sounds like great fun!

    Have you already set up a bingo card generator on this site somewhere, or are you planning to do so in the near future?

    Love it - great idea.  But it would suck if the lass was dog-ugly and on your card.  Are you required to take her out or can you wait until you hit another go-go ?

    @Adzadel: I think the point is that you can generate bingo cards for yourself and then organize a contest with one or more mates.

    @Calvin: You're not required to do anything.  But the first player to complete his card wins the game.  So being too fussy means you're never gonna win…

    @Penfold: I've always posted 2-3 articles a week. Get over yourself.

    @eloelo: One wins the game.

    @Adzadel: It runs as long as your gang wants it to. Not sure how the go-go bars could stop you. It's nothing to do with them though.

    @werewolf: Thanks. Somebody got it :)

    After missing the point and making so many mistakes in the past I was due to get something right.  I'm still embarrassed about not understanding the best-go-go-in-Bangkok poll.

    I agree that of late your posts are getting a little dull.  After your Newbie Tuesday post telling us how successful you are, if you want to keep successful, i suggest posting stories that are interesting.  This one was a waste of space.  Bingo-go … you sound like a girl.  Get your pecker out, fuck some tart in a different location and put your obvious writing skills to better use.

    @twerp: Ouch. The Newbie Tuesday post wasn't a boast about how successful I am. It was just an illustration of how only a tiny percentage of readers ever leave comments. I wanted to encourage the silent majority to make themselves heard.

    I've posted 284 articles on the site - of course no single reader will appreciate every single one of them, but given the rarity of negative comments, I seem to be getting it right for most readers, most of the time.

    The concept of the Bingo-go game had a friend and me in stitches recently, so I thought I'd share it. Seems we don't all have identical senses of humour, but I'd say that's probably a good thing.

    I write the kind of stories that I'd like to read, about things that interest or amuse me. I'll continue to do so. Hope you enjoy the next one more.

    "The concept of the Bingo-go game had a friend and me in stitches recently"  I guess you were drunk?

    I like your site.  I like 90% of writing. You just need to get laid more often.  I suggest a night of strip pool at Twins on soi 23.  Pick a tart, play pool, she wins you buy her a lady drink, she loses she takes off one item of clothing.  When she's naked (after she's lost 4 times), fuck her in the toilets.  I find it quite fun … a much better game than bingo-go.

    Twerp hits new heights of irony with his "You just need to get laid more often" line. Just in case any of you out there have lingering doubts - if 3B got laid more often there would have to be a shift in the space-time continuum to allow it, and as Newtonian physics would apply there would be less time for the rest of us.

    It's funny how we all choose "nicknames" which seem to be a reflection of ourselves, whether implicitly or explicitly, whether consciously or unconsciously.  Twerp got his right.

    Twins on Soi 23 employs some of the ugliest girls in Bangkok. I do not wish to see them naked, or even clothed, come to think of it.

    I absolutely do not need to get laid more often, or I will die.

    Filth incoming.

    On an unrelated note, or only vaguely topical at best but I don't know where else to post this, but I was wondering if there's any metalcore or the like to be had nowadays in Bkk. From what I remember from the times I was there, as well as from what I've been reading here, choices in music-supply and bar-decorums are pretty much limited to either Asian cheese fests or techno trips.

    I could have come up with an interesting name like John Brown I guess.

    For a 500 baht toilet slurp you cant be too picky.  Twins occassionally have ok girls there.  Last week there was baby-less 37kg 19 year old buriram bitch.  I know she was 37kgs because I spent 1 baht to check.  And she looked quite pretty when her face was covered with my testically produced skin whitener.  I never got over myself but i get over her a fair bit.

    Twerp, you seem like the bookish type. Have you thought of extending your apercus to exquisitely-poised essays on la condition humaine? There's a public out there hungry for your hi-toned literary style, although its knowing post-modern deconstructivist stance will be misunderstood by many. Keep it coming!*
