#CHASE THE BING
ASTROS BINGO 2026 BEGINS TODAY

Last year, we played Astros Bingo. Most of us lost. We lost prop bets. We lost predictions. We lost Joey Gallo from the Major Leagues. Today, you have a chance to take it all back. You know your team, you know the division. Make your picks, send them to me. One ballot each. Lots of mistakes, no do-overs. Most of us are going to make some terrible guesses, that doesn't mean we can't win the overall title. Pick wisely. Mock other people's picks openly. This is the fight of our lives, at least as far as online baseball bingo goes. And one of you is going to win. Whatever it takes. Good luck.
OK, kids here's the rules:
You make your picks from the more than 100 squares below.
Your first square is free, Rangers Suck:
You need to fill in 14 other picks. There is a "blank ballot' at the bottom of my post you can copy/paste to help you make sure you get the right amount.
The "<>" sign on a lot of categories means you can either pick less than that number or more than that number. If the category hits the number exactly, it counts for the > square.
There are 2 tie-breakers at the end of the ballot. Make sure you include them in your picks so you can guarantee your best shot at the money.
You can DM me or post your picks here and I'll put them all in a viewable spreadsheet that will be updated frequently.
I'll put up $50 to the winner. If anyone wants to contribute additional prize money / prizes, let me know, but that is completely optional.
The absolute deadline is WEDNESDAY MARCH 26TH @ 310 PM CENTRAL
