Three cows were let into an enclosure at the start of Saturday's Cow Patty Bingo event at the Farm Show grounds.

CONNOQUENESSING TWP — A crowd gathered Saturday at the Farm Show Grounds on Evans City Road for a game of Cow Patty Bingo from noon to 2 p.m.. Three cows wandered a 40-foot-by-50-foot area divided into 500 2-foot squares and let the cow chips fall where they may. People who bought a ticket corresponding to a square that received a deposit from one of the cows won $100 for the first drop, $250 for the second instance or $1,000 for the final deposit.

The cow bingo was part of the Kids Day America event and benefited Kids' Weekend Backpack program.
