Big lines are an every year thing.  It usually starts while people become frustrated at the smell of shish bebab during the blessings church service.  They wait and wait and when people notice the line growing, they don't want to be left behind, and go (at the last minute) and buy their meal tickets, and the domino effect has begun.  The wise ones hang around for the church service to end, and the Hayr Sourp to pass out the grapes, and eat them in while in line :o)   FYI, odars are the ones that wont cut in front of you :o)
Much love for all the church volunteers.
Here is where your dollars go when you want your kids to get out of your hair.  The bingo is something for all ages although the prizes are for...well...I still haven't figured that out.  Housewives?
If you forget your tavlu board, dont worry, you can always find someone else's to borrow. 
Remember, they only play on the nicer board!
