B-1 yells the Drag queen

Drag queen bingo game upsets neighbor
BY ROGER DROUIN

SARASOTA -- Skip Dyrda is fed up with Drag Queen Bingo at the neighboring Canvas Cafe, a weekly event that highlights drag queens hollering bingo numbers and off-color jokes into a megaphone less than 20 feet from Dyrda's home.

He has called the police three times, only to be told that the city's noise ordinance does not take effect until 10 p.m., an hour when Dyrda's 7-year-old daughter should be fast asleep.

The cafe's owner has agreed to take away the megaphone, but that is about as far as he will go in restricting an event that is garnering national attention; the noise dispute made CNN News on Wednesday.
