Thread: Poll Of The Day 8/24/05 - Art Auction or Bingo?

If you could only go to one, which would it be: Art Auction or Bingo?

I would like a Neither option..........

It's a trick question

I understand.........

The art auction has free champagne, and you can learn about contemporary art. We have bought some pieces but you don't have to do that to enjoy the auction. The people watching is fun too.

I haven't done bingo except on the internet, but I limit my gambling to the slots.

You know, I just hate those art auctions. I have to admit, I'll walk in, get a glass of champagne, pretend to look for a few minutes and leave. Yuck, none of the art they have is anything I'm interested in. The first five cruises I took, I never even went to a Bingo game. However, my last cruise, I ended up playing 3 or 4 different times. It was actually fun (especially if you do it with the "drink of the day" in your hand). So, I was forced to vote for Bingo. Wil I do it again? Probably not, unless I'm really, really bored on the ship and that's not likely to happen.

I always visit the art auction just for fun and I play bingo with my parents and friends every cruise. I think I'd have to choose bingo because you can win money (or a free cruise) .

:thumbsdow Neither.
The art is hideous (most of it) and overpriced (almost all of it). Ick.
Bingo? Used to play years and years and years ago, but not into it these days.

Wow, between those two I guess I'd take the art option. Can we move the art option into the casino? Win a free painting if you get three of a kind? That might be interesting...

If I had to choose between one or the other, it would be the auction. At least there is a glass of free champagne. With bingo, with the going rate for a card at $10, it's pretty much just throwing my money away.

Between the auction, bingo, and 'none of the above', my choice is definately 'none of the above'. You can find me at the suffelboard court
