The University of Wisconsin-Madison hosted a drag show Sunday as part of the festivities to welcome students back to campus.
“One drag queen repeatedly called an audience member a ‘twink’ and joked that the game was ‘good Christian bingo with good Christian values,'” the Madison Federalist student news outlet reported.
“The drag queen also told the players to scream bingo ‘like you’re faking something’ … The drag queen joked that all the men are ‘bottoms’ in Madison.”
“Wisconsin Welcome is a multi-week celebration that offers first-year and transfer students more than 400 events to discover Madison, meet fellow Badgers, and to find their campus community,” campus spokesperson Gillian Drummond told the Federalist. “Events are organized and funded by various campus departments, student organizations, and community organizations.”
Drummond did not tell the outlet what funding pool paid for the drag bingo.
As The College Fix reported earlier this month, the public university maintains a Sex Out Loud student group that the Associated Students of Madison Student Services Finance Committee allocated $132,991 to for the club’s operations in the 2026-27 academic year.
Planned events for this current school year include “Condoms and Candy” and “National Condom Week.” Events hosted by Sex Out Loud last year included a burlesque performance, an HIV bootcamp, “Sex Jeopardy,” “Sexy Bingo,” and “Drag Bingo.”
