Meet Marci Marie, Everett's Nightlife Maven
Naughty Bingo is an institution at Clubhouse Bar and Grill, my neighborhood bar. What's not to like? Free to play, food and drink specials, and vulgar game cards, many of which I designed a while back.
And don't forget the prizes. Host Marci Marie's weekly Amazon orders would make any package thief blush. I saw on Facebook that she's starting another weekly Naughty Bingo at Fuego, and wondered if she has any evenings off at all. Turns out? Not many.
How long have you been going to Clubhouse and how did you end up hosting Naughty Bingo?
I have been going for the last 3-4 years. I was a participant at Naughty Bingo up until October last year. The host called in sick and they needed a replacement. I decided to give it a try, and it evolved from there.
What would you tell someone who's never been to Naughty Bingo?
You definitely have to have an open mind. I start out with the disclaimer: if you are easily offended, tonight is not the night to be here. I’ve actually had people get up and walk out! It’s fun, entertaining, rude, crude and guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
What do you love about Clubhouse?
The people. We have a wide range of people that come in there. Everyone gets along, we treat each other like family and there are so many different activities going on.
Tell us about other events you do there.
We also have darts, poker, karaoke, paint and sips, and themed parties. Something for everyone.
Do you host events anywhere else?
I do! I currently host Naughty Bingo at six different bars. Of course The Clubhouse, The Rec Room (Lynnwood), White Buffalo (Everett), Twin Foxes (Everett), Fuego Cocktail Lounge (Everett) and The Getaway (Mountlake Terrace).
I also host Karaoke Friday nights at The Clubhouse, I will be hosting karaoke in Granite Falls starting the end of this month at Spar Tree, and there are a couple other things in the works as well. We will start Trivia after the football season. Speaking of Football, I host the games at The Clubhouse. We have raffles every game.
These dark evenings are perfect for getting a group of friends together for fun with Marci. If you're out by yourself, she draws a really friendly crowd. Here's her weekly schedule:
Monday: Naughty Bingo 6:30 p.m., White Buffalo/Twin Foxes (rotating)
Tuesday: Naughty Bingo 6:30 p.m., Clubhouse
Wednesday: Naughty Bingo 7 p.m., Rec Room
Thursday: Naughty Bingo 5 p.m., Fuego Cocktail Lounge
Friday: Karaoke – 8 p.m., Clubhouse
Saturday: Rotating events depending on the day (like the Pajama Party December 7)
Sunday: Seahawks Game Days, Clubhouse
