MILWAUKEE — It's the game that started everything at Potawatomi more than three decades ago: bingo. 

And starting New Year's Eve, the Potawatomi Hotel & Casino will bring it back with a special session that starts at noon in the Legacy Ballroom. After that, regular sessions begin Jan. 4, and they are slated every Wednesday through Sunday. 

Presale for the New Year's eve event starts at noon on Tuesday. Those tickets can be purchased at the bingo reservation booth in person between 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Only 600 seats are available, and the session is machine buy-in only with no paper bingo cards.

The last time bingo was held on the grounds was before the pandemic hit in 2020, according to its website.
