Sarah Ahlberg, a 35-year-old who collects vinyl records and writes letters on fine stationery, attended bingonight at Mr. Corgan's tea shop because the nonprofit animal shelter she works for was the beneficiary of the night's proceeds.
Ms. Fiorentino came out to play bingo because "it feels old-timey" and to support Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan, who owns the tea shop and in February created a monthly bingonight, led each time by a different local celebrity.
