GRAB A SNACK FOR BUDDIES:
What snack depends on the letter of the ball bingoed on:
B= Bananas= Buddies 1 BB
I= Icecream= The 2nd buddy up and t he 2nd buddy down win 2BBs
N= Nothing= No BBS, no one bought in a snack
G= Grapes= Buddies win 2 BBs
O= Orange= 3rd Buddy up and 3rd buddy down win 3 BBs

LINE OF 5:
Take each group of five numbers from 1-5, 6-10, etc.....up to 71-75. You give the CM a number from 1-75, if your number is within the same line of 5 numbers as the ball bingoed on, you win 2 BBs: for example: You chose 23, if the ball bingoed on is 24, that number falls in your line of five, so you win. If the number you chose is the exact ball bingoed on, you win 8 BBs.

BIG BUDDIES: When someone bingos buddy BBs are determined by the ball bingoed on:
B = 2 Buddies up win 2 BBs,
 I = 1 Buddy up – 1 Buddy down wins 3 BBs,
G = 2 Buddies down win 2 BBs,
Bingo on N or O and O BBs, Why? Because it doesn't spell BIG!!! So stay away from those N's and O's in BIG Buddies!!!

1-2-3 WHO WILL YOUR BUDDIES BE? Buddies will be determined by the ball bingoed on as to who will win 3 BBs. B 1- I 25= Buddies one up and one down,  I 26- G 50= Buddies 2nd up and 2nd down, G 51- O 75= Buddies 3rd up and 3rd down!! It's as easy and 1-2-3!!!

CRAZY BUDDIES: The letter of the ball bingoed on determines winners: Bingo on:
B- Batty = 2nd buddy up wins 2 BBs
I- Insane = 1 Buddy up and 1 Buddy down wins 1 BB
N- Nutty = 3rd Buddy up and 3rd buddy down wins 3 BBs
G- Goofy = 1 Buddy up and 1 Buddy down wins 1 BB
O- Out of mind = 4th Buddy up wins 4 BBs

SAY NO TO CHARLIE: Choose a number from the N row and a number from the O row when the CM ask for it. The first 3 players to yell NO in chat when their N and O come out will win 3 BBs!!

BOUNCING BUDDIES: Buddies will Bounce around as the ball that is bingoed on will determine who they are: B= 1 up-1 down wins 1 BB, I= 2nd up 2nd down wins 2 BBs, N= 3rd up and 3rd down wins 3 BBs, G= 1 up -1 down wins 2BBs, O= 4th up and 4th down wins 3 BBs

Bingo on a pair: example: 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, or 66 and win 4 x BBs. Farkle like you have never Farkled before. The amount of BBs for Farkle is 5 BBs. You could win up to 20 BBs. Wow what a Farkle!

PJ PARTY:
Back by popular demand! Our daytime PJ party takes place every Thursday from 3PM-5PM (during Kicked from the Bus). Just hope you don't get kicked wearing those PJs!!!

WORD CONNECTIONS or TRIVIA:
Watch for CM Debbie to come into chat. She will give you a word and you will have to guess what it connects to. If, for example, she says "train" you would guess track, etc. It's pretty easy, you just have to pay attention to the word hint; but it won't be that easy, ha ha! Or she could play Trivia. So keep your eyes peeled for CM Debbie - you never know when she might appear... The number for the winner will differ each time. She might say, the 3rd with the correct answer wins 15 BBs etc. Watch for those connections or trivia!

LUCKY 3s:
Bingo on a number with a 3 in it and the 3rd buddy up and the 3rd buddy down from the winner will win 3 BBs.

HIT BY A SNOWFLAKE?
Each time you bingo, you hit a buddy with a snowflake. The buddy will be determined by the number of the ball bingoed on. If you bingo on 35 then it would be the 5th buddy up and the 5th buddy down win 2 BBs, because you knocked your buddy out with a snowflake?

CATCH A SNOWFLAKE:
Each time you bingo; if it is an odd number the 3rd bud up will catch three snowflakes and they win 3 BBs, if it is an even number the 4th bud down will catch four snowflakes and they win 4 BBs. If you yell CATCH when you bingo on an odd number, or SNOWFLAKE when you bingo on an even, you will also win 3 BBs.

TEAM B-I-N-G-O:
Everyone in chat will be split into five groups. For example group # 1 would be the B team etc. Each time your team wins, every team member will win 2 BBs. The CM will divide you into the teams before the game starts. Cheer for your team… rah rah rah!! No Team Bingo on a Special Pattern!!

NOTE - You must let the CM know if you want a team for Team Bingo - you also must be in chat and playing in order to give a Team……If you come in the middle of a game, please make sure you tell the CM you would like a Team…which will not be good until the next game.

MR BIG CHOCOLATE LOVER:
Each player will pick a number from the B row. Once you see the B-I-G called under the B row you chose, yell "I LOVE CHOCOLATE" in chat. The first 3 to yell will win 3 BBs each. No abbreviations accepted - you must type out: "I LOVE CHOCOLATE".

FLIP A NUMBER:
Everyone will pick a number from 1-75 (with the exception of 67, 68, and 69). Watch the number board for your number and its flip (your number backwards). When you see both numbers called, yell Flip in chat. The first to yell wins 3 BBs, 2nd to yell wins 2 BBs, 3rd to yell wins 1 BBs. For example: if you chose 37, then 37 and 73 have to be called for you to yell Flip!

UP AUTUMN - DOWN AUTUMN:
Every game is a buddy game, but which buddy is it? It will be the 3rd buddy up and the 3rd buddy down that will be catching the falling leaves with 3 BBs each.

COPY CAT:
Watch for the CM to call out a letter on the bingo board, then simply type the NUMBER when it is called.    For example: The CM says: "4th G!" You wait until the 4th G ball is called and type the number of that ball. Payout is 3, 2, 1 BBs.

NO CHAT GAMES DURING COPY CAT. ONLY ONE POSTING PER PLAYER PER GAME.
