Big Winner at Mecca Bingo
30th May, 2008
Next to lotteries, bingo is one of the most commonly played game. The reason for this is simple. The jackpot money can be very thrilling and you don’t have to be a highly skilled player to be able to play the game with ease and convenience. With online bingo, you won’t even need sharp eyes and ears to be able to note the numbers that have been called out to watch for the winning pattern. In short, it is easy to follow with big money involved. There really is no arguing this plain and simple fact about the game.
The Lady who Won
A 64-year old lady who opted to remain anonymous bagged the bingo jackpot price of GBP 639,000 through the Mecca Bingo Club. She won just as the Platinum playoff game of the National Bingo last Sunday took off. She currently has a job as an administrative assistant in one of the hospitals. She has 2 sons and 3 grandchildren. And this is as far as what has been disclosed to the media regarding her identity. She has a very amusing story about how she and husband are dealing with this pleasant surprise.
The idea that she has won a whopping GBP 639,000 failed to sink in right away. And like most other winners of such an amount, she was in a state of disbelief and shock. She even had a couple or more of brandies and woke up with headache the following morning. When she told her husband about what happened, he too was thrilled at the prospect but like her, he the extra zeroes in the amount failed to register. He thought the jackpot only amounted to GBP 639! When he finally got the right amount, he too asked for a brandy to drink.
Biggest Win from Mecca Bingo
Like most bingo players, the winner had been playing at Mecca Bingo since 1993. She would even drive a couple of her friends who came from the same village she did to Mecca Bingo club located in Exeter’s North Street to play there every Sunday.
So far, she has snagged the biggest cash prize care of Mecca Bingo club to date. This should excite not only the winner but also patrons of Mecca Bingo in Exeter. For the National Bingo game, the Platinum cash prize is a welcome addition. The winner’s prize came from the Platinum jackpot, National Game prize, regional prize and Mecca’s in house prize.
