NC State Students Divided Over 'Dirty Bingo' Event Featuring Butt Plugs, Dildos as Prizes (NSFW)
A bingo night with a kinky twist is offering students at North Carolina State University a chance to take home some very unique prizes.
Butt plugs, dildos, artificial vaginae, and other adult items were purchased by the Student Union Activities Board to be used as giveaways for "Dirty Bingo."
Students will have the opportunity to "win some 'unique' prizes while having a good time, laughing, being entertained, and learning about safe practices," organizers told ABC11.
But some students say they don't approve of how the UAB is spending their student activity fees.
"The fact that a public university is going to spend mandatory student fees on such an event is just repulsive," student Emma Benson, co-chair of a libertarian organization, told Campus Reform. "There is nothing that involves reading 50 Shades of Grey or using a butt plug that promotes safe sex."
But Board President Lauryn Collier disagrees, saying that Dirty Bingo offers "a new innovative way to do safe sex education on campus."
She also notes that event's $304.69 price tag amounts to less than a penny per student.
On Facebook, students picked sides in the ongoing debate, but the event was still set to take place as scheduled next Tuesday at 8 PM.
"I'm loving all of this controversy," wrote student Anjar Hossain. "When was the last time that our student activities board was actually relevant? All people are doing is giving this event more publicity, which is always good."
