Step-By-Step:
Start by saving the Foodball Bingo PDF by clicking on the "Print" button above.
Open the PDF and print a hard copy.
For random calling, you can print another copy of the call list, cut, fold and then pull them randomly at play time.
Cut the bingo cards at the cut marks if there are greater than 1 bingo cards per page.
Distribute one card per player. For marking, you can use crayons. Crayons cost the least.
Select one person to be the caller. If you are playing in a small group, the caller can as well play along with their own Bingo card.
The caller initiates the game by randomly picking an item from the call list and calling out it to everyone.
The players scan their cards to see if they have the announced word. If they do, they dab that word.
The first player to complete a horizontal, vertical, or a diagonal line of crossed items yells "Bingo!" and wins the play.
The caller verifies that the items crossed off form a correct line according to the Bingo card and call list.
You can play for varied patterns or a full card blackout for an extended play.
