how to Play

Dirty Dingo is the game where stealing gifts isn’t rudeit’s required.

  • WRAP – Each guest brings 2-3 wrapped, anonymous gifts.

  • PICK – When the dealer calls your card, pick a gift.

  • UNWRAP – Once all gifts are taken, everyone unwraps and does a quick show & tell.

  • STEAL – When your card is called, you can steal a gift. The final card called gets the last laugh—and any gift they want!

Playing is as simple as: Wrap. Pick. Unwrap. Steal.

Our Story

​​For 5 decades, our family has gathered around a game my grandma called Dirty Bingo. It started innocent enough — little wrapped prizes like pencils and erasers — with the real fun being the “dirty” part: stealing gifts from each other.
​
As the years rolled on, the tradition evolved. The gifts got bigger (Yeti mugs, bottles of wine) — and much funnier (regifted oddities, and gag gifts my grandma definitely wouldn’t have approved of).​
​

That playful spirit is now Dirty Dingo — a game born from my grandma’s tradition and embodied by a mischievous dingo who loves to steal gifts. It’s a game where stealing is part of the fun, and no two parties are ever the same.

​

It’s the tradition we still look forward to every year, now reimagined as the perfect party game for friends and family gatherings, office parties, bachelorettes, or even those “what-do-you-get-them?” birthdays — anywhere laughter, mischief, and maybe a few questionable gifts are welcome.
