ALAMOGORDO, N.M. (AP) — A 70-year-old New Mexico woman banned from a bingo hall is fighting to get back in the game.

KRQE-TV reports (http://goo.gl/m0bYBK ) that Evangeline Shelland of Alamogordo has asked the New Mexico Attorney General's Office for help since she was banned two years ago from playing her favorite game at the Fraternal Order of Eagles club.

She says management banished her after telling her they had received letters from people accusing her of driving erratically in the parking lot. Shelland denies the accusation. The club declined to comment.

The Attorney General's Office says it didn't have jurisdiction over the club and couldn't force it to allow Shelland to play.

Thoughts?
 
Whether the accusations are true or not, she's obviously not wanted there. She needs to give this up and find another place to play Bingo.
 
Hahaha. When I clicked here I was expecting this to be something like she won too much so they thought she was cheating. But no she just drives bad... how is this even newsworthy?

Those reporters clearly don't have many stories to follow up on lol.
