During the 16 days of the 2012 London Olympic Games, there’s sure to be no shortage of tears, triumphs, Gatorade or royalty. Whether your only exercise is dialing for pizza deliv- ery, or your family likes a good old-fashioned rivalry, get into the Games with our bingo cards. The bingo game is designed to be played throughout TV coverage of the entire Games. If you see or hear an occurrence listed on your card, mark it off. There are five cards to pick from. If you’ve got more than five playing, you can photocopy the cards. Even with dupli- cate cards, the person who watches the most coverage will have the biggest advantage. First one to cover the card wins the gold! — Courtney Ortega, McClatchy Newspapers
