Awww!! I didn't know you are Ms. Clara's grandson!! I was searching for Bunco rules and came across this video. I love her cooking videos! She is such an inspiration, and her legacy lives on with the amazing videos and cookbook! Big hugs to you and your family. ❤
Thank you so much. She and I played endless games of Bunco and Scopa, so it’s been nice to share a bit more of her magic here. Thanks for the kind words!
My own 98 year old Grandma just passed a few days ago. Our hearts are heavy with grief, but we will cherish the many wonderful memories we have of her. ❤ hugs.
That your grandmother would call you and say you beat her at solitaire Bunco just warmed my heart! What a sweet memory! Thanks for the lesson! I'm going to a Bunco party next weekend and I've never played before so this was very helpful!
Your Nana is adorable. She might have known my grandma, she also lived in Chicago. Going to my first Bunco game tonight. It should be fun. Thanks for the tips!!!
Hey thanks!! I had already loved your Nana for years (i found her channel on happenstance), and now just found this because someone asked me to a bunco game.......I'd never played it, but I had heard about it somewhere.....now I know it was from Clara's youtube channel! She is such a beautiful woman and I feel like I wish she was my Nana too. You are so blessed, and thank you to both of your for such great shares. May God continue to Bless your whole family 💗💓💕
Awesome that you included the PDF score sheet! It would be great if you could create one for your Scopa video, maybe make it modifiable to add/delete rules based on region/family tradition
Thank you! Nana just loved Bunco, she had whole notebooks full of played games with us and from solo games. I got her hooked on Pass the Pigs which became her second favorite “dice game.” Lots of great memories! Thanks for watching.
@Play-In-Games just to confirm, you keep rolling on your turn until you dont roll the number of the round? And you win the round by having the highest points for that round?
Yes that’s fairly close. You can also continue rolling if you get triples of another number. In terms of ending a round it’s the first person to roll 21 or more points who ends the round as the winner.
No set number. Roll until you don’t get at least one of the target number*, or until you score 21 (instant win!). *- if you roll three of a kind that are not the target number, you score 5 and your turn continues.
Great question. I suppose for the same reasons as there are so many Bingo tournaments; fund raising, social gathering and the thrill of winning, even if it’s by shear luck.
