Where: The event took place on Zoom.
Lotería is an iconic card game that has been passed down many generations in Mexico. Lotería is the Spanish word for lottery. While it is a game of chance, the game is more similar to bingo.
Each card has a different picture, and its corresponding name in Spanish underneath. Each player chooses a board with randomly selected images across it. Typically, el cantor, the caller, is responsible for calling out the card name or even a riddle that goes with the picture. The players then mark the spot with a chip, often pinto beans. The first player with four chips in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal pattern wins the game after shouting “Lotería!”
The most famous version of the cards uses the artwork titled “Don Clemente Gallo,” which was introduced in Mexico by French businessman Don Clemente Jacques. However, many contemporary young artists, like Mike Alfaro of Millennial Loteria, reimagine the outdated Latinx representation in Lotería and humorously updates it to reflect a more modern generation.
