Think back to elementary school, to Friday night school fundraisers at the Bingo parlor. Cards organized in tidy grids, one of those sweet paint markers you secretly wished you could take home with you and all the pizza, popcorn and fountain drinks you could consume.
Not ringing a bell? Maybe it's just a Midwestern thing.
Between MLSsoccer.com's pregame and postgames shows – featuring myself, Russ Thaler and New England Revolution midfielder Kelyn Rowe – and four consecutive Conference Semifinal Leg 2 games to consume starting at 2 pm ET, we're looking at approximately 10 straight hours of 2016 Audi MLS Cup playoff action on Sunday. That's a grind, a sporting slog that'll require real dedication should you commit to the whole shebang (highly recommended).
To help you stay engaged throughout, we've put together the Playoff Bingo board you see below. Download and print one out, follow along here or on Twitter or just drop your own suggestions for future cards in the comment section below.
The rules are simple. If you hear or see one of the spaces on the card, mark that space off as filled. Straight lines of five constitute Bingo, as do all four corners or a blackout (all spaces filled). If all goes well, depending on your rooting interests, we'll each have a blackout by the time the action ends on Sunday.
