Loteria Bingo

[smalldiamond]

Loteria is a Mexican game, close to bingo. The difference between bingo and Loteria is on Loteria, they use a deck of cards with pictures, and numbers on ping pong balls. They use either small rocks or beans to mark the cards.

Well in El Paso at the Grandview Senior Citizen's Center, they closed the game down in May. The Parks and Recreation Department felt it was illegal because they were marking the cards with pennies, and the winner of the game gets to keep all the pennies that was used as markers by all the players. The excited winner will win about $1.25 per game.

The City Hall has now lifted the ban and now they are playing again. They have been playing this game at the center for years. They are all very happy they get to play again.
