More Details
Block by block, nerve by nerve—it’s time for another round of Giant Jenga at Ding Dong Lounge. Every Wednesday night, things get wobbly around 11:00pm (or whenever Gary’s ready). If you’ve been to our Comedy Nights, you already know Gary Dooley brings the banter. If not, prepare for a host who’ll hype your triumphs, roast your collapses, and keep the crowd laughing.
It’s casual, chaotic, and surprisingly competitive. We run multiple rounds, with the final two standing going head-to-head in a tense showdown. The tower gets taller, the crowd gets louder, and eventually… someone loses everything (except their pride).
First Prize: $50 cash
Second Prize: $50 food & beverage voucher (to use on the night)
