Editorial: With the rain comes bingo.



With the rain Comes bingoSummer rain. It's always disappointing when the big summer barbecue gets rained out, or an outdoor game of kickball gets cancelled due to some summer rain. But how about a week of rain, or more? How about torrential rain?

Britain is recovering from torrential rains, with more than one month's worth of rain falling in a few hours in some places. And they're predicting more rain.

This weekend, playing in a softball tournament, I too experienced the tribulations of summer rain when half of the softball fields were reduced to a saturated and muddy, unusable mess. And the English are not the only ones suffering a rainy summer. Everything from torrential rain in Texas to killer rain-triggered floods and landslides in China, to heavy rain in New York city and Australia, and still more severe rainstorms hitting all of Germany. It's like a global rainy season!

Nothing brings a sense of global community like widespread rainstorms. What to do with that sense of community? Bring it to the bingo hall. With a giant umbrella rack by the door and bingo callers calling in all different languages, I think a global bingo hall would be the place to go now that the whole globe seems to be afflicted by this summer rain. Where would this global bingo hall be? London? New York? Tokyo?

Come to think of it, there already is a "global" bingo hall, and it's right here at Bingo.com. So next time you find your softball game has been rained out, or the picnic you planned is soggy, log in and play a few games right here at the world's bingo hall.
