Drag bingo

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Speaking as a gay man, I can confirm that all "drag bingo" really means is a bingo game hosted and called by a drag queen — it's not a notable phenomenon in its own right, but just a cultural variation which warrants little more than one or two lines in another article (in exactly the same way that my childhood hometown's newest cultural embarrassment, "porketta bingo", only merits a couple of lines in meat raffle instead of having a separate article of its own.) Consequently, I just can't for the life of me figure out why we would actually need a separate article about it, rather than a single line in bingo's main article which acknowledges that some gay bars have bingo events hosted by drag queens.

 * Delete - As someone who's gay himself I don't think you being gay is why you know what drag bingo is, before a few seconds ago I didn't know what this was... and I'm not really happy that I know what this is now... Regardless this is an extremely non-notable topic and doesn't deserve more than sentence in the bingo article. Mrmoustache14 (talk) 02:38, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Bingo (U.S.), where this topic is already mentioned. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:44, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Already mentioned because I added it there about ten minutes after nominating this...but yeah, I'd accept redirection too. Nomination revised accordingly. Bearcat (talk) 02:53, 15 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Bingo (U.S.). I agree with Bearcat. Appropriate for the Bingo (U.S.) page, but not it's own. Sean Egan (talk) 18:54, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
