Bunco on the Bay

My monthly gambling bunco game was last night with the ladies. Every month a different member of our gang group hosts and last night it was held a block off the bay.

The beach style home that is typically seen further south in the Outer Banks of North Carolina made it feel like I was on vacation. The four floors of wraparound porches only increased this feeling.


Then the gambling dice game started after dinner.

There is a constant noise level of women talking from room to room with the occasional explosion of laughter.

At the end of the winners are separated from the losers and the money is distributed. In three years, I have never won top prize. The closest I came was second and that was three years ago. 

In the event of a tie, players do anything they can for good luck.



We pay twice our ante and in the last two years have raised $1,250 for breast cancer research.

It's a cause where every woman wins.
