Really, really like Bingo and really, realllllly like State of the Union addresses?

January 27th, 2010 12 PM PST by Sam Taylor - The Bellingham Herald

Well you’ve got some options, my friends (if only Sen. McCain had won, right?!).

First, here’s this SOTU bingo sheet for President Obama’s address tonight, via Donklephant.com.

Then, the Huffington Post via their humor section has their bingo sheet set up as, well, a drinking game. Of course, I don’t encourage drinking, but if you’re going to, do it responsibly and HuffPo also warns that the sheet is for entertainment purposes, if you follow it to the T, you will likely die. (Hat tip to AFY for the link)

The National Constitution Center has a bingo game (and lesson plan), over here, that is also designed as a classroom education tool for before, during and after the address.

The San Francisco Chronicle has an even fancier bingo card up, right here.

Get out your hot-colored bingo blotters, poker visors and bedazzled jean jackets, people, because it’s State of the Union Address Bingo Day!

    I made up a Bingo card and the dems played at the office last night. Good times.

    If you were doing a drinking game, you should have had to drink everytime Obama said, “The house has already passed this . . .” and then glared at the Senate.
