Ginny's Chicken $#!+ Bingo! w/ Lindsay Beaver
Details
Ginny's Chicken $#!+ Bingo! w/ Lindsay Beaver is the kind of gloriously rowdy Austin tradition that could only happen on a Sunday afternoon. Think classic honky-tonk energy, a live country soundtrack, and a bingo game where the star player is… a chicken. Yes, a real one.
This special edition of the legendary Chicken $#!+ Bingo features powerhouse drummer, singer, and bandleader Lindsay Beaver bringing a fiery mix of rockabilly, roots rock, and roadhouse blues to the stage. Her live sets are high-octane and soulful, which pairs perfectly with cold beer, loud cheers, and the suspense of waiting to see where the chicken, ahem, makes its move on the bingo board.
- Time & vibe: Kicks off at 3:30pm, just in time to turn a lazy Sunday into a full-on roadhouse party.
- Cover: No cover, so you can save that cash for drinks and bingo tickets.
- Age: 21+ only – this one’s strictly for the grown-ups.
- Music: Austin Country, honky tonk, Western swing, and more, with live tunes you can two-step to all afternoon.
- Attitude: “Music, cold beer & hot chicks!” – the event leans into classic dive-bar humor and old-school roadhouse swagger.
- Legacy: Dale Watson, the self-proclaimed Godfather of Chicken $#!+ Bingo, moved his famed Sunday roadhouse ritual to this newer South Congress home, keeping the tradition alive while giving it a fresh stage.
The game itself is simple but hilariously suspenseful: folks crowd around, numbers are claimed, and everyone stares at the board waiting for the feathered star to pick a winner. Between rounds, the band keeps the dance floor busy with toe-tapping, boot-scootin’ tunes that make it practically impossible to sit still.
If your perfect Sunday involves two-steppin’, people-watching, and an only-in-Austin mix of country music and outrageous bingo, this is your sweet spot. Grab your boots, your friends, and your sense of humor – Ginny’s Chicken $#!+ Bingo with Lindsay Beaver is part honky-tonk throwdown, part bizarre game show, and all-around roadhouse heaven.
