he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bingo is all completed on an app, so it is easily accessible for all and easy to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event included typical Organised Chaos themes, with a &#8216;dance off&#8217; taking place during the music round and comedy prizes being given out to reward those that didn&#8217;t end their night shouting &#8220;bingo!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Joe Beardall, Organised Chaos event manager, said: &#8220;I think St Patrick&#8217;s Day really showed the potential that Katie O&#8217;Brien&#8217;s has, with an authentic Irish feel, a perfect stage, we are looking forward to seeing new faces there every week.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Katie O&#8217;Brien&#8217;s has exploded in the UK over the last year as they now have 5 locations across the country including: Newcastle, Leicester, Birmingham, Durham and now Sheffield. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Bingo is taking place every Tuesday at 9pm, with Katie O&#8217;Brien&#8217;s also hosting a quiz night on Thursday at 9pm. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Organised Chaos event managers, Finn McGrath (left) and Joe Beardall (right)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":54,"featured_media":569,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7,5],"tags":[130,129,127,128,131,12,126,46],"class_list":["post-568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture","category-news","tag-bingo","tag-katie-obriens","tag-nightlife","tag-organised-chaos","tag-quiz-night","tag-sheffield","tag-students","tag-west-street"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/54"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=568"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/568\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":50563,"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/568\/revisions\/50563"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/569"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shef-live.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
