We're taking Bingo to the extreme, with total prize offerings valued at over $34,500! Each round will have a prize value higher than the last, culminating in the final round, in which one lucky person could go home with $25,000 cash.

Additional Information:
This activity is free and open only to current KSU students (Main Campus). Bingo begins promptly at 11 p.m with doors opening at 10:30 p.m. This activity will be limited to the first 500 people, with those attending presenting their FLASHcard to access the activity.


Round 1: Free Chipotle® Every Week for a Semester
Pattern: Regular Bingo
Prize Value: $112
We have the fastest way to satisfy your cravings! The winner of this round will receive 16 gift cards that can be used every week at Chipotle for a free burrito, burrito bowl, salad or order of tacos.

Official Rules:
500 players will be given three 5x5 bingo grids on one sheet of paper corresponding to the five letters in the word B-I-N-G-O for every round. Numbers such as B-2 or 0-68 are then drawn at random (out of a possible 75) until one player completes the ‘Bingo’ pattern assigned to that round. A player may win more than one round.

A bingo card contains 24 numbered spaces and one free space (blank), with which you play ‘Bingo.’ The numbers are assigned at random on each card and are arranged in five columns of five numbers each by five rows (5x5 = 25 in total including the blank square). The numbers in the ‘B’ column are between 1 and 15, in the I column between 16 and 30, in the N column (containing four numbers and the free space) between 31 and 45, in the G column between 46 and 60, and in the O column between 61 and 75.

Important Restrictions:
All rounds require the winner to fill out a prize redemption form. The winner may not claim the prize and then give it to someone else. Should the winner of any round decline his/her prize, we will continue playing the current round until we have an accepting winner.

Additionally, current or former employees, family members, agents, successors, or assignees of Recreational Services are ineligible to participate in the last round.

Please Note:
This activity will be filmed and photographed for promotional and security purposes.

Tie Breaking Procedure:
Should two or more people complete the “Bingo” pattern at the same time, we will conduct a tie-breaker in the following manner. We will reset the ball blower and choose a number for each player. Players will be assigned their number after being alphabetized by last name. The player whose ball has the highest number on it is the winner of the prize.
