Trusts bingo with D. peter ramsay, Q,C.
Have you yearned for a way to combine Law, Bingo and Drinking? Are you looking for a way to make
Ramsay’s Trusts class tolerable…or even fun? Have you exhausted the Internet and need new
distractions during lectures? If so, welcome to Trusts Bingo!
Following are an assortment of ready-made Bingo cards, as well as a blank template Bingo card that you
can use to create your own cards.
REQUIREMENTS
-2 or more players
-1 bingo card per player
-a highlighter (bingo “dabbers” are too obvious)
-money for drinks after class
INSTRUCTIONS
The game starts as soon as Ramsay walks into class and continues until he finishes. Pay attention what
he says, when he says it, and what he is wearing. If he fulfills any of the requirements of your squares, fill
in that square. The centre square is a freebee.
When you have completed a five square line (vertical, horizontal, or diagonal) you have a Bingo. Email or
otherwise signal the other players.
A player is welcome to ask questions of Ramsay during the lecture to guide him towards something that
will fulfill the requirement of a particular square. To do so is not cheating.
WHO WINS, HOW TO WIN, & WHAT YOU WIN
We are playing for drinks here. The first person to get Bingo gets one drink (of the winner’s choosing)
from each of the losers. (We played in a group of three, so the most you could win was two drinks.)
If no one gets a Bingo then the person with the most squares filled in is the winner.
If no one gets Bingo and there are two people who have the same number of completed squares, then
the loser(s) must by drinks for both of the winners.
If no one gets Bingo and all players have the same number of squares filled in, then just go to the bar and
drink, which means that everyone wins!
You may keep playing after the first person gets Bingo, but only first Bingo is a winner; any subsequent
Bingos are still losers.
BONUS
If a player gets the first Bingo and he or she immediately stands up and shouts “Bingo!”, that person gets
a $20 cash bonus from the losers. (None of us ever had the nerve to do this, but perhaps someday
someone will.)
