From its origination in 1530 “Lo Giucco del Lotto d’Italia” is the Italian State Lottery in existence to this day. So while we are hoping you win your share of cash at San Manuel Indian Bingo and Casino with our World Record Rock and Roll Bingo on September 22nd, let’s give props to the one dude who took the Italian game and popularized it in to the Bingo we know today.

In my never ending quest to advance the scientific knowledge of getting drunk, I decided to steal borrow the pedometer from Stu, Tiffany, & Jimbo and conduct a little experiment at the Kegger last Friday. Usually they use this thing to find out who can pump their fist the most times in a minute, or some other stupid stunt like that. (4orty won that one, by the way. He clicked off something like 90 strokes in 30 seconds. Apparently he’s been practicing).

I know I am not alone. Especially if you have a family and are looking for a inexpensive way to spend the upcoming Memorial Day Weekend. However, I know there a A LOT of people in the Inland Empire who have A) never been to the National Orange Show Festival and/or B) have not been since they were a child. That’s why I am here to tell you to give it a first or second chance. Don’t travel for the holiday weekend when there’s so much to do here at home.
