Yahoo Lifestyle ‘One Chicago’ Surprises Fans With All-New Interactive Game for Tonight's Crossover Event
The highly-anticipated three-hour crossover event known as One Chicago is extending fans a unique opportunity to participate in the drama from the comfort of their own homes.
NBC’s special TV event, which brings together the storylines and characters of Chicago Fire, Chicago Med and Chicago P.D., is scheduled to air on Wednesday, Jan. 29. The crossover event begins with Chicago Fire and ends with Chicago P.D.
The network created a One Chicago bingo game that fans can play as they watch the drama unfold over the three-hour stretch of new episodes. Before it all begins at 8 p.m. ET, fans can click through NBC’s website to gain access to a bingo card, which gives every player a free middle space. The 24 other spaces on the five-by-five bingo card include potential plot lines.
Fans who decide to play the game have been urged to “look out for matching scenes on your bingo card” while watching the three new episodes. “If a scene matches your card, tap the square to mark it off,” the rules outlined on NBC’s website instructed.

The game does come with a catch—not all plot lines written on the bingo squares are real, meaning viewers will need to pay close attention if they want a shot at winning. Players can win by identifying enough correct scenes to get five cards in a row vertically, horizontally or diagonally.
The network urged fans to check out the bingo cards before the crossover begins, writing on Instagram, “the one chicago squad won’t be the only ones putting in work during the crossover! click the link in our bio to play one chicago bingo during the episodes.”
Fans seemed excited by the opportunity to participate, with several posting applause, heart and fire emojis in the comment section.
“ADORE THIS!!” one fan wrote as another predicted, “oh tonight is about to be so fun!!!”
One viewer who agreed that One Chicago bingo “sounds like so much fun” urged NBC to make the game permanent, writing, “make this a BINGO for every episode please!”
“I'll definitely be watching this tonight,” another viewer declared.
