The Reel Life: Santa's new hobby edition

The infamous Unipiper of Portland -- usually gussied up as our favorite space overlord, Darth Vader -- brought some Christmas cheer to Oregon by appearing as good ol' Saint Nick. . . with a twist.

(The twist is, of course, a set of flaming bagpipes. And a kilt. And a unicycle.)

The Unipiper-turned-Santa belted out a pretty hardcore rendition of Ode to Joy with his fiery instrument in one hand and a pile of presents in the other. We couldn't play a bagpipe with both hands, let alone one. Color us impressed.

The Reel Life advises all parents to tell their children tales of this guy instead of the standard rendition of Santa, if only for the fact that this guy is actually real.

Get in the fast lane, Grandma, this bingo game is ready to roll!

Leading online Bingo site BingoBilly is taking the wrapping off its new Welcome Package. While the competition usually just offers a one-time First Deposit Bonus, BingoBilly is now packing its Welcome Package with five types of incentives.

"If you thought our previous Welcome Package was large, wait until you see what we're offering right now," stated Laura Chacon, Bingo Manager of BingoBilly. "We want to make our Bingo site even bigger, so we're welcoming new players with open arms -- and open wallets. Join us and earn thousands of dollars in potential bonuses, free bingo games and other big surprises."

The Welcome Package begins with a $30 free bonus gift. The free offer is available to players who create their BingoBilly account and does not require a deposit.

Those choosing to make their first deposit will benefit from the second part of the Welcome Package, which includes five separate deposit bonuses. Players will earn a 500% bonus on their 1st deposit, 525% on their 2nd, 550% on their 3rd, and 600% on their 4th and 5th.

The Welcome Package also includes seats in up to four freerolls worth a total of $600. The room plays every Saturday from 7 p.m.-8 p.m. ET featuring 15 games with $10 free prizes. In addition to the freerolls, players are entitled to a Daily Surprise Gift every day, with bonuses up to $100.

Finally, new BingoBilly members will also earn access into private bingo rooms for seven straight days. The rooms are open 8 p.m. to midnight ET, featuring $500 to $1,000 guaranteed games. What's more, because the rooms are for depositors only, players have a greater shot at walking away with a win.
