The conflict in the King of Bingo is between tradition and modernization. The traditionalists want to keep the game as it is, while the modernizers want to make changes to make it more appealing to modern players. The traditionalists are represented by Mr.
White, the old-school bingo caller, and the modernizers are represented by Mrs. Green, the new-school bingo caller.
The conflict starts when Mrs. Green decides to change the way bingo is played. She introduces new rules, such as awarding bonus points for every card that is called, instead of only for the number called. This change makes it more challenging for Mr.
White, who is used to playing the traditional way. He doesn’t like how Mrs. Green is changing the game and starts complaining to anyone who will listen.
The conflict eventually comes to a head when Mrs. Green hosts her own tournament with the new rules in place. Mr. White decides to enter the tournament, but he isn’t very good at playing by the new rules and he quickly loses all his money.
He becomes angry with Mrs. Green and starts spreading rumors about her online.
The conflict in the King of Bingo ultimately comes down to one question: Should tradition be preserved or should modernization be accepted? In this case, it seems that modernization has won out and Mr. White has been defeated by Mrs.
Green’s innovations.
