This year’s Super Bowl will be different for a number of reasons. For players, the week leading in has to be filled with caution in order to follow league health and safety protocols. For fans, the televised game should be as enticing as ever with a fantastic matchup. Most people will probably be missing out on their usual Super Bowl parties, or at least running on smaller capacities.
Some of the most fun mainstays of Super Bowl parties can still happen in a remote setting. Squares pools easily done over shared spreadsheets or e-mail threads and prop sheets are readily available to pass around digitally to friends. Bingo boards offer another unique way to interact with the Big Game whether you are a supreme NFL diehard or just a fan of the Super Bowl spectacle.
Below is a blank bingo board to be filled out by each participant. Below the board, are five categories of selections. Fill each column in any order you want while using only items listed in those categories. As soon as one of your items occurs, check off that box. The one exception is that the center square must be either “Chiefs Win” or “Buccaneers Win” and can only be checked at the end of the game.
The rules are simple: five boxes checked off in a row (vertically, horizontally, or diagonally) is a bingo. Most of the items to choose from are expected to happen. The winner will be whoever completes a bingo first.
