We Invented How To Play SKATE BINGO

Alright, folks. This is it. The collaboration you never knew you needed. From the brilliant mind of Gabe Cruz comes the game to end all games. A joining of worlds that has never before been achieved by man-kind. We’re talking about SKATE BINGO. In the spirit of Braille, we’re going to teach you how to play Skate Bingo the easiest way. So buckle up, slap on your skate shoes and get ready because, it’s going to be a wild ride. Check out our video below to see Gabe, Mogely, Chris Mcnugget, Glo, Uzi, and Nigel play the inaugural game of Skateboarding Bingo at the Braille House.

How  to Play SKATE BINGO

  1. Gather the required items: Bingo cage, standard 75-ball Bingo cards, 75 balls (numbered 1-75), Bingo markers
  2. Create a list of 75 skateboard tricks and assign a number to each trick
  3. Find some skaters to play with (you can play over a video-call if necessary)
  4. Decide who will be the “caller” (the person who draws the numbered balls from the cage and calls out the number/trick). You can do this by having each skater draw a ball from the cage. The skater with the highest number will be the Caller.
  5. The Caller will draw a ball from the cage and call out the number/trick. Any skater with that number on their Bingo card will have the opportunity to land the trick.
  6. To cross off the number on your Bingo card, you must land the corresponding numbered skateboard trick within 3 tries. If you don’t land the trick within 3 tries, you can no longer use that number on your card.
  7. To win the game, the skater must get a BINGO by filling in 5 spaces in a row (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) on their Bingo card.
