LOTERA LOCA (Crazy Lottery in English) is a game show based on a traditional Mexican game of chance. Hosted by Jaime Carnil, and joined by musician Sheila E., each episode features two contestants. They take turns choosing numbers on a screen that reveals a lotera card.
Those of us who grew up in South Texas, especially in Mexican American neighborhoods, are familiar with the game of Mexican Bingo, often called Loteria (Lottery) or Chalupa (a small boat full of goodies, in this case).
