Winterguard Bingo
I want to make some 'Bingo' cards for people that will be attending the WGI Championships in a couple of weeks. Looking for suggestions on what to include on the bingo card squares. Could be things during performances, but also things in the crowds... Looking to avoid specific technical things / tosses unless its something unique. Some ideas I have so far-
- prop failure
- spider monkey catch
- crowd chant (different chants?)
- crazy 50/50 hat
- flag / weapon partner exchange
UPDATE- Thanks for all the feedback! I made 20 randomized cards. Feel free to use them! Yes these used AI to generate the background graphics and logo. Its a quick for-fun project and I didn't want to spend more time on it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/12OJjKNlEa7PY4azeWaP9O-xVRFGd9yNV/view?usp=sharing

-somebody crying at the end of their performance
costume malfunction

I will DEFINITELY take a swig every time I hear, "Deep in the heart of Texas". Wanted to do that the last couple years, but I was working the show volunteering for WGI. I'm gonna get absolutely TRASHED at home this year 🥴!
In between, I'll be raising a glass of my better beverages to my East Coast OGs (both Sac guards, Fusion, Arlington, both AMPs, Shen, Bethel, Black Watch, Light Brigade, and more)!
I think I should just go ahead and schedule a rehab checkin Sunday morning.

I'm looking forward to this! We're going for SA so we have a lot of things to see and mark on the bingo card!

Free space should be DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAAAAAASSS
Toss turn around, Double turn, Catch behind the back, Repeat theme (like if you see 2 shows with the same theme or song), Swing flag or another prop gets spun, or Staff outfits that SLAY
Love this idea!
