Step-By-Step:
Start by saving the SoCAB 2026! 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 lines if there are more than 1 bingo cards per page.
Give one card to each player. For marking, you can use crayons. Crayons are the cheapest.
Choose one person to be the caller. If you are playing in a small group, the caller may as well play along with their own Bingo card.
The caller initiates the game by randomly drawing an item from the call list and calling out it to all players.
The players check their cards to see if they have the announced word. If they do, they mark that word.
The first player to finish a horizontal, vertical, or a diagonal line of marked items yells "Bingo!" and wins the play.
The caller verifies that the items crossed off form a proper line as per the Bingo card and call list.
You can play for varied patterns or a full card blackout for an extended play.
