Play Virtual Musical Bingo for Prizes!

Jam out to some of your favorite songs while also “competing” in a somewhat classic game of bingo!

Liftoff Entertainment, known mostly for providing photobooth and DJ services, started doing musical bingo in bars this past fall.  Now with the Governor’s stay at home order, owner Jay Nigro has found a way to take his game digital.  After a few practice sessions, the game goes live tonight at 8pm in a partnership with Dayton Sportical, a local company that sets up sports leagues, tourneys & events.  Games will be every Monday and Wednesday night through April and you’ll need to purchase your bingo card by 1pm on the day of play.

Nigro explains Music Bingo “as a combination of Name That Tune and Bingo.  Thirty second clips of music are played, once you identify the song, you mark it off your card.”   For the virtual game, players will use the online sight ZOOM, which allow you to see and chat with up to 100 players per session.  For the $5 fee, you’ll get to play 2 rounds, each with a different card, and each round takes about 1/2 an hour. Nigro also suggests players print off their cards if they have access to a printer.  If not, having 2 devices helps, using one to mark your card, while following along with the game on the other. Don’t worry if you don’t know the song or artist, after 20 seconds it will be revealed for all, but your knowledge and speed will give you a better chance to call BINGO!

Oh and the best part- there are prizes- gift cards to local restaurants!
