Tonight Matt and Katie hosted the first, of many, I hope, Couples Bunko Game Night!! We had a blast!!! I wasn’t sure how to describe Bunko. I was going to say it was a dice game, almost like Yahtzee but really it was nothing like Yahtzee. So I decided to check out if there was a Wikipedia page. Wikipedia says, “Bunko is a social dice game involving 100% luck and no skill (there are no decisions to be made),[3] scoring and a simple set of rules. Women who are part of a Bunko club take turns as the Bunko hostess, providing snacks, refreshments and the tables to set up the games. The hostess may also provide a door prize. Small amounts of money can be involved as well. The object of the game is to accumulate points and to roll certain combinations. The winners get prizes (provided by the hostess or pooled from the club resources) for accomplishments such as the highest score, the lowest score, or the most bunkos.”
We really had a great night! This is a perfect game for a big group of friends. Like Wikipedia says, there is no skill involved, all luck. No one has to feel like they don’t know trivia or can’t draw. Everyone is on the same skill level. This is also a great game because you are continuously moving tables and sitting with other people.
We can’t thank Matt and Katie enough for hosting tonight!!! Ichiro and I had an awesome night out!!
