THE GROOVE • PLAY THAT FUNKY BINGO • blurb from 4/8/26
(31.9% off entrées for seated guests because The Groove believes in feeding both your soul and your dabber hand.)
The Groove came in tonight, buzzing before the speakers even warmed up, and I walked in feeling like a responsible adult who had everything under control, up until several of my "good friends" started chanting "late! late! late!" But then, what are friends for, right?
We started with April Fools (and the joke being on me, of course). Classic Rock Part 4 rolled in with the confidence of a denim jacket that’s seen some things, things Brittanie S, er Brittanie T, er... S ... maybe T... claims to have never seen. 80’s Part 2 followed, neon‑bright and unapologetic, and by the time we hit 00’s Pop Hits, the room was fully committed — singing, dancing, and dabbing like the early 2000s had personally asked them to represent.
Then I made the kind of mistake that gets whispered about in host folklore: I let a Microsoft Update run before saving the spreadsheet. One polite progress bar later, last week’s winners evaporated like they’d been sketched in pencil and someone casually erased them. I went into some kind of trance and found myself in a dessert-beer dream. I saw my laptop wearing flip-flops, trying to flee from a gigantic Ticonderoga! No, that's not a spider, silly! It's a Yellow pancil! As the pencil caught up with the laptop, itleaned over in slow motion and began rubbing it's reddish-looking eraser on the screen! It was like 4th grade all over again, except we didn't have laptops back then, we had an abacus. Anyway, draw a pencil with an eraser at the bottom of your Round 2 Funky Bingo card this week for a BONUS WIN or an AUTO-WIN and maybe I'll be able to rewrite the part where my spreadsheet vanished. Draw the Secret Bonus Art as soon as you get your Round 2 Funky Bingo card! IF you get a Funky Bingo during Round 2, by having the Art Bonus on the card, you will have your name added TWICE! If you don't Bingo during Round 2, turn the Round 2 card in to your Host when you go to retrieve the next Round's Funky Bingo Card and your name will be added ONCE to the Winner's Wheel.

A fitting vibe, honestly, for a night that started with April Fools, where the whole room leaned into the chaos with a grin that said, “Yeah, we’ve all been there.” But even without last week’s data, the energy was unmistakable: The Groove doesn’t need a perfect file to have a perfect night.
Thankfully, photos from the last two weeks were in the camera, not the Hungry, Hungry Laptop... The photographic record has provided me with our Gift Card Prize Winners! But there are 40+ awesome photos of you awesome folks! How about doing me a huge and go there, FOLLOW our facebook page, and "LIKE" and matbe even COMMENT on the pics! It all helps our algorythm, which has been suffering lately.
4/8/26 WINNERS!
