HOW TO PLAY PREMIER BINGO

Bingo is a basic game played on a 5×5 grid board of random numbers between 1-75. The Caller, or Entertainer, will announce the numbers in succession at random until someone scores a Bingo. Once a Bingo is verified by the Entertainer, all cards are changed/cleared and the next round can begin. Premier Bingo will consist of 10 rounds collectively referred to as a game.

    1. Premier Bingo is FREE to play. It is designed as a form of entertainment and players are not guaranteed a prize at any time.

    2. The Entertainer is the Judge and Jury and they have the final decision on all aspects of Premier Bingo.

    3. Players must obtain ALL materials from Entertainer. Players are not allowed to bring their own cards, but they can bring their own daubers.

    4. Players may join Premier Bingo at any time during the event, but must begin play at the start of a round; players cannot begin in the middle of a round.

    5. The round begins when the Entertainer calls the first number of the round. The round ends when a verified Bingo is confirmed.

    6. The Entertainer will announce ‘letter numbers’ as generated by Premier Bingo’s proprietary algorithm random number generator. The Entertainer has no control over which ‘letter numbers’ are chosen and must read all ‘letter numbers’ that are generated.

    7. The Entertainer will continue to call ‘letter numbers’ until a Bingo is called. Calling a bingo is done by a player when they believe they have satisfied the Bingo requirements (see below for Bingo Requirements). The player will loudly announce “BINGO!” before the next ‘letter number’ is called. If the next ‘letter number’ is called before the player announces their Bingo, then the Bingo is invalid and the player must earn their Bingo in a different combination. ALL Bingos MUST include the most recently called ‘letter number’.

    8. Once a Bingo is called, the player must present their Bingo card to the Entertainer for verification. All other players should refrain from discarding or clearing their cards until the alleged Bingo is verified. A Bingo is verified if the player’s card has all the ‘letter numbers’ to satisfy the Bingo Requirement(s) for the current round.

    9. Once the Bingo is verified, the current round ends and the next round may begin.

    10. If the Bingo is NOT verified or is invalid, the player is no longer eligible to win during that round. This rule also applies to any player calling a “false Bingo”, even as a joke or for amusement.

    11. Any prizes will be distributed following the round in which the verified Bingo was registered.

    1. There are several different variations of Bingo. The Entertainer will announce which variation will be valid before each round is started.

    2. Variations include, but are not limited to: Standard (any 5 in-line horizontal, vertical, or diagonal), 4 Corners (all 4 corners), Designs (specific designs as outlined in separate sheet available from Entertainer), etc. See accompanying Variations sheet for details.

    1. Premier Bingo is a game for all ages. However, all players must be able to manage their own cards without assistance. Exceptions for this rule can be granted for special needs or similar circumstances; all at the discretion of the Entertainer.

    2. All players are eligible to win prizes, however if the prize is subject to any laws governing the redemption and/or usage of prizes, winners must adhere to them. For example, if a player wins a ‘Free Drink’, they must be of legal drinking age to redeem the prize or choose a non-alcoholic beverage.

    3. If a player is deemed ineligible (based on rule #2) by the Entertainer, any prize is forfeited and cannot be given or reassigned to a different player.

    4. All players are at the complete discretion of Premier Bingo. Players can be disqualified at any time and for any reason. Cheating and unethical participating is strictly not allowed and will be grounds for immediate disqualification.
