Hosted by the always fantastic Bingo Boy, this year’s Legendary Toolbelt Bingo will be held on Saturday, November 8, 2014 from 7:00 to 10:30 pm at the Intercontinental Los Angeles in Century City.

Bingo Boy, the master of ceremonies, along with the fabulous drag queen Roxy Wood entertained the packed house; while the good people of the Andaz, Location professionals, LMGA business members, industry vendors, FLICS liaisons and friends, joined together to make this event a huge success.
