GSN Tries to Make Tax Day Less 'Taxing' by Doubling the Payoff for Verified Bingo Winners on 'BINGO AMERICA' Tuesday, April 15

SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 14 /PRNewswire/ -- To help provide extra relief to GSN's audience on America's tax return deadline day, the company is doubling its cash payout for verified winners on BINGO AMERICA for one day only tomorrow. At-home audience members playing along with BINGO AMERICA on Tuesday, April 15 at 7PM/6c and 11PM/10c, will have the chance of winning $100* if a verified Bingo is scored or if numbers are matched in the show's Bingo Bonus Round.

BINGO AMERICA blends all the classic elements of trivia-based game shows with bingo's traditional game-play in a fast-paced format. The "free-to-play-along" series awards prizes to both on-air players and at-home viewers every airing. Host Patrick Duffy invites every viewer at home to play along and win with free, downloadable BINGO AMERICA game cards (available at http://www.gsn.com/bingo) while its on-air players compete for their own "Bingo." And with special "Bingo Bonus Numbers" (located on every downloaded bingo card), GSN gives viewers another chance to win big during the Bingo Bonus Round at the end of every episode.

*Double Prize amount is available only on the April 15, 2008 show airings.
