Survive the Campaign with Twin Cities Geek Debate Bingo

Posted in Pop Culture By Madeleine Vasaly On September 26, 2016

The first presidential debate is tonight, and there will be more to come. We know a lot of you are sick of the campaigns already, but we’ve got something that might make it a little easier: candidate bingo! We can’t claim credit for the idea, but we’ve put our own geeky twist on it. Here are four slightly different cards you can download, print, and use to go head to head with your friends.

If you play, we’d love for you tag us on social media—especially if you call bingo!
