5.Bingo Bar Crawl

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 349 reviews · 3 to 4 hours (approx.) · from $21

The Happy Hour ticket may include unlimited beer, wine, and soft drinks. Expect a social, playful night rather than a polished cocktail tour.

“We arrived at the meeting point and were directed to a very stale smelling basement, where we were given a free shot. We were told that we would remain there for 1.5hrs (without music due to an apparent laptop fault). We were then given our unique bingo cards with a variety of puerile tasks to complete (my first being to walk up to a random table of strangers and leave a condom or tampon on the table without saying a word). At this point a significant number of us (three quarters of the group 15+) decided to cut our losses and leave as this was not really what we expected.”
