A night out at the bingo, catching up with friends, and having a few drinks is a favourite activity for many of us. However, as one unfortunate woman recently found out, it is not without its own risks. At a recent Bingo Bongo’s event, the unsuspecting woman headed to bar to get a round of pints in for her and her mates; however, when carrying the drinks back to the table, things went horribly wrong.
A video shared on X shows the woman having a little dance while carrying a tray of at least 5 pints above her head. As some may have predicted, her revelry soon turned to misery when she lost her balance and tipped the lot of them over her head.
Behind the now absolutely drenched woman, her friend can be seen quickly stepping back and looking absolutely shocked before bending double with laughter. The laughter soon spread around the crowd, but one woman did not look too impressed after some of the beer landed in her hair. The dripping, wet, mortified woman can then be seen making her way back to her friends, who continue to point, laugh, and take pictures with their phones.
Bongo’s Bingo events are popular for their fun and unique atmosphere. We recently introduced one of their upcoming events, Bongo’s Christmas Bingo All The Way Show in Hull.
While the identity of the woman in the video remains a mystery, she has little chance of ever living the incident down as the video has been viewed more than 2.6 million times on X.
As is always the case on social media, the incident has inspired a range of sympathetic comments from viewers of the video.
One person picked up on the unhappy woman in the background writing, “Bird sat down behind hers fuming”, prompting the original poster to answer, “Noticed that hahahaha.” Another pointed out that the woman looked like she’d had a “champagne shower” while another commented, “That’s so good.”
There are plenty more comments on the video including a person who said, “She was so confident too!” and another who clearly enjoyed the woman’s friend’s reaction saying “Her friend is so real for laughing”.
However, many were quick to point out that humiliation is not the only consequence with one person commenting “Probably £8 a pint” and another saying “In London, that’s a £100 quid mistake”, others bemoaned the waste of “good beer” while one wit joked, “Drinks are on her. Urm that was not exactly what I meant.”

Anyone who has been to a Bongo’s Bingo event won’t be surprised by the spillage, there are plenty of people who say that they have ruined their bingo cards by soaking them with drinks and others have been spotted falling off their seats after enjoying one drink too many. Furthermore, on one of Bongo’s Bingo Reddit forums someone points out that “the staff look after everyone and will appear with blue roll to mop up any spills”, so clearly, this woman is not the first to make a mess.
If you’re yet to experience the madness of a Bongo’s Bingo event, then keep your eyes peeled for the next event in your area. It is a barmy and sometimes beery night that brings together bingo, dance-offs, rave intervals, and lots of audience participation.
The madness even extends to the prizes, with goodies such as massive pink unicorns, Henry hoovers, adult toys, mobility scooters, and karaoke machines up for grabs. Later this month, a series of Halloween-themed special events are taking place which are sure to ramp the craziness up to scary levels never seen before at a bingo hall. Tickets are selling fast, so be sure to grab yours before they’re sold out.
Additionally, there is no need to worry about the safety of Bongo’s Bingo as they are regulated by the UK Gambling Commission under operating licence № 47699-N-326687.
