RULES:

The object of the game is to be the first player to get 5 in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Setup. Give each player a scorecard and markers. Special note: some scorecards have built in markers. Put all the Bingo balls in the cradle and mix them up.

One person, the caller mixes the balls and draws one at random and calls out the letter and the number on the ball. Each player then marks the called letter on their scorecard if it is present. The caller sets the drawn ball aside to/and marks it. If a player has 5 in a row they call out “BINGO”. They read back their letters and numbers to the caller to confirm a correct win. If they’re correct then the player wins. If not correct, or no one calls out bingo, then the caller draws another ball and the process repeats until there is a winner.

The middle space on each board is the free space, and always counts as if it has a marker on it. Another popular way to play is called: blackout. This is when the object of the players is to completely fill their scorecard with marks instead of just getting 5 in a row.
