If you get down to St. Louis City (which is it's own county and not to
be confused with St. Louis County for those not familiar with St.
Louis), mainly from Anheuser-Busch and parts south, there are actually
a bunch of bingos around. Usually they are in old time
hole-in-the-wall bars that have been around for years and have enough
space to house them. These places typically have a lot of character
to them and are fun to go to for a drink or two and talk with the
regulars. I don't know the individual names of the places because
I've probably only gone in them once in my life with some friends and
generally don't search out bingos.
If you don't want to search these bars out, you might try Eat-Right
diners. They tend to have usually one, maybe two bingos. Remember,
if you don't Eat-Right, then don't eat at all! Get a slinger while
you're at it.
