Gotham Go Group - Tuesdays at the Hungarian

Every Tuesday evening from 5 - closing. All are welcome, from beginners to pros. We usually have 8-15 players show up. This is a casual coffee house environment so don't expect a Go tournament kind of silence, but rather a din of conversation that is probably the vanguard of intellectual New York. Absolutely free, it costs nothing to play, and there is nothing to join. But PLEASE do get a drink, dessert or both to support the good folks at the Hungarian Pastry Shop who so graciously allow us to use their storied and humble space. We have some boards and stones, but it never hurts to bring your own.

Bingo Mingle and Match

This is a prepay event. Please see info and tickets at: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1985878128942](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1985878128942) ### What Is Bingo Mingle and Match? This is a new, fun and interactive twist on traditional speed dating. At the beginning of the event, you’ll receive a **Bingo card**. During the event, you’ll be put in small groups to chat. Rounds will last about 10 minutes and the men will rotate each round. Throughout the rounds, your goal is to **complete as many Bingo squares as possible** by finding people who match the descriptions. The ultimate goal is to complete a full card. There will also be Bingo numbers on the card as well. Examples include: * Find someone who has **more than 2 pets** * Find someone with **blue eyes** * Find someone who has seen **every Harry Potter movie** * Find someone who is a **school teacher** * Find someone who has traveled to **more than two countries this year** * Find someone whose zodiac sign is **Capricorn** During your chatting sessions you will ask questions that would reveal answers that you can mark off on your Bingo card. The Bingo card boxes can lead to discussions and you will all learn about each other. Meanwhile, the host will occasionally call out Bingo numbers throughout the event (like **B6, N32**, etc.). Complete your board and shout **“BINGO!” 🎉** Info and tickets: at: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1985878128942](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1985878128942) \*\* SEE MORE UPCOMING NYC AREA EVENTS AT [WWW.FRIENDZYEVENTS.COM](http://www.friendzyevents.com/) \*\*
