What Are Charity Game Ticket Games (or Pulltabs)? – Part Two
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010Bingo Event Games
Bingo Event Games basically take the instant win games and incorporate them into an actual bingo game. For example, a player who ends up purchasing one of the elusive bingo ball tickets in a deal will hold onto that ticket until the entire deal is sold. Then those tickets can be played as a separate game within the bingo game for yet another opportunity to win big.
One such game that is popular in some areas contains 25 tickets within each deal that have three bingo ball numbers on them. The player who daubs all three numbers on his ticket calls out “Balls!” Just like in regular bingo, this needs to be called out on the last number called! Once “Balls” is called, the game is temporarily stopped until both the winning numbers and the serial number on the ticket can be verified. Then the bingo game continues on as usual.
One Final Note: If you plan on selling pulltabs, be sure that you consult with your state lottery or other regulatory agency for charitable gaming before your organization sells charity tickets. Rules and regulations can vary, and in most states sellers must be licensed. Some states don’t allow them at all.
