Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
(a) The equipment used in the conduct of
					 bingo shall be maintained in good repair and sound working condition. The
					 utilization of such equipment and the method of play shall be such that each
					 player is afforded an equal opportunity to win. The objects or balls to be
					 drawn shall be essentially the same as to color, shape, weight, balance and all
					 other characteristics so as to be, at all times during the conduct of bingo,
					 equally agitated and circulated within the receptacle, except that each of the
					 five letters comprising the word BINGO reflected on the objects or balls may be
					 designated its own color, provided that all of the 15 numbered balls or objects
					 corresponding to the color of each letter in the word BINGO shall be identical
					 in color to each other. All 75 objects or balls shall be present in the
					 receptacle before each game is begun.
(b) If a determination is made by the caller
					 during the calling of the numbered objects or balls of a game in progress that
					 one or more of the 75 objects or balls were not present in the receptacle prior
					 to the calling of the first ball drawn in that game due to mechanical
					 malfunction or human error, an announcement shall be made that the game has
					 been cancelled, all 75 objects or balls shall be returned to the receptacle and
					 the game shall be restarted. During occasions in which indelible ink daubers
					 and disposable paper bingo opportunities are utilized, an announcement shall be
					 made requiring that all participants mark their cards for the restarted game in
					 a different colored ink than that color used during the cancelled game. All
					 numbers announced shall be clearly audible to all the players present. Where
					 more than one room is used for any one game, the receptacle, the caller and the
					 assistant caller must be in the room where the greatest number of players are
					 present and all letters and numbers announced shall be clearly audible to the
					 players in such room and also clearly audible to the players in the other room
					 or rooms.

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
There shall be two persons present at the receptacle from
						which the objects, or balls are drawn; one person shall remove the ball from
						the receptacle, observe the letter and the number, and hand it to the other
						person who shall raise the ball to display the letter and number to the players
						and announce the letters and the complete numbers being called accurately and
						audibly to all players present. Where there is an audio-video system in
						operation, the caller may be the sole person present at the receptacle from
						which the objects or balls are drawn, provided the caller positions each ball
						before the camera to clearly display the letter and number appearing on each
						ball to the players via the video monitor(s). When an audio-video system is in
						operation, the caller shall announce the next letter and number in its entirety
						while the image of that letter and number are clearly displayed on the video
						monitor(s) and shall raise the ball to display the letter and number to the
						players before placing it in the appropriately numbered space at the caller's
						station. The caller shall not be required to handle the ball when a hands-free
						bingo receptacle approved by the commission is utilized, but shall be required
						to announce both the letter and the number while the image of that letter and
						number are clearly displayed on the video monitor(s). Speed-up games such as
						the wild number game in which players mark those numbers appearing on their
						face-cards whose second digits match the wild number's single digit number (or
						its second digit if the wild number is a two-digit number) so designated by the
						licensed authorized organization are permitted only when the bingo system
						utilized has a wild number function that automatically causes the bingo display
						board to illuminate the wild number and all numbers corresponding with it. Once
						removed, no ball shall be returned to the receptacle until after the conclusion
						of the game.

						system is used, the video monitors of such system shall be visible to a
						majority of the players at all times and shall be maintained in good working
						order. The pre-drawing of the numbers in a pre-drawn bingo game shall begin not
						more than 45 minutes prior to the start of the game, and shall not begin unless
						there are a number of players equal to at least 10 percent of the bingo seating
						capacity present to verify the integrity of the pre-drawing of the numbered
						balls.
