🎲 Sunday Board Games at Black Cat LES 🐈‍⬛✨ [RSVP on LetsBunch.com Required]

Sun, Oct 11, 8:00 PM
From City Social (NYC, Hoboken, Jersey City) - letsbunch.com
4.8

**Please RSVP on Bunch for accuracy, communication and connection**: [https://bunch-api.onrender.com/api/share/hangout/5936f3b9-8fee-4a9f-a704-825a62a5bdb0](https://bunch-api.onrender.com/api/share/hangout/5936f3b9-8fee-4a9f-a704-825a62a5bdb0) 🎲 **Sunday Board Games at Black Cat LES** 🐈‍⬛✨ What if Sunday afternoons in the Lower East Side became something you actually looked forward to? ☺️ We’re starting something new at **Black Cat LES**. The Lower East Side is such a cool, lively neighborhood that we started wondering: **what would happen if we got a regular board game afternoon going here?** 🎲♟️ Would it spice up life in the LES a little? Would more people come out of their apartments on a Sunday? Would strangers become friends over Codenames, Uno, Monopoly, or a game nobody quite remembers the rules to? 😂 Could this become *the thing you do on Sundays*? There’s only one way to find out. 💛 🎲 **Come play board games, meet people, and spend a lazy Sunday afternoon with us at Black Cat LES.** Come alone! In fact, most people at Bunch events do. We’ll get everyone playing together, so you don't need to know anyone before you arrive. ♟️ Bring a favorite game if you have one. 🎴 Or just show up and jump into whatever everyone else is playing. ☕ Grab a coffee, drink, or bite while you're there. 👋 Stay for one game or hang out all afternoon. No board game expertise required. **Being aggressively competitive is also completely optional.** 😇 💛 **The bigger experiment** We want to see if we can build something regular in the Lower East Side, not by putting on giant events, but simply by giving people an easy reason to come out and spend time together. If enough people want this, we'll keep doing it. And maybe Sunday afternoons in the LES get a little more social. 🎲🐈‍⬛✨ 📲 **MUST RSVP on Bunch to join:** [https://bunch-api.onrender.com/api/share/hangout/5936f3b9-8fee-4a9f-a704-825a62a5bdb0](https://bunch-api.onrender.com/api/share/hangout/5936f3b9-8fee-4a9f-a704-825a62a5bdb0) 🎟️ **Free to join.** Just pay for whatever you order. 💛 **What’s Bunch?** Bunch is a completely free, grassroots social app built around a simple idea: **anyone should be able to get people together.** Members create small hangouts for board games, coffee, walks, brunch, drinks, dinner, and whatever else they feel like doing. Other people join, everyone meets in real life, and it grows from there. We're building across NYC, Jersey City, and Hoboken with one mission: make it easier for people to actually spend time together, without putting human connection behind a price tag. Our motto is simple: **every person welcomes every other person.** ☺️💛 **Start Bunching:** [https://www.letsbunch.com](https://www.letsbunch.com/) See you Sunday! 🎲🐈‍⬛ Aleksandra Founder of Bunch 💛
