We often hear about bingo winners who were it complete shock, completely speechless and breaking down in tears. But this young bingo winner, a thirty six year old woman from Glenrothes, says that she was “totally bewildered” when the bingo club told her how much she had won. She also said that it was absolutely fantastic and completely unreal too!
The lucky lady says that she is still in shock and will only really believe that she won once the ₤18 000 goes into her banking account. The bewildered lady won ₤16 363 in the National Bingo Game, the Regional prize, ₤2 099 as well as a ₤80 house prize. Although that night the National Prize was ₤32 724, but another player also called full house in forty three numbers so the two winners shared the prize.
The Glenrothes lady works as a cashier in a supermarket and generally plays bingo with her father about twice a week. They are members at the Gala Bingo club, but her father was not playing with her on the night of the win. She is married with one child and says that she wants to use her winnings to buy a new car.
I wonder if she is going to be sharing the prize money with her father? The report from the national Bingo didn’t say! I should assume so as UK bingo winners seem to be most generous when it comes to sharing with their bingo playing partners, even when they are not present on the night of a win.
The woman works as a cashier in a supermarket and is married with one child. She usually plays bingo twice a week at the Gala with her Dad, although on the evening of her big win she was playing alone.
She hasn’t yet decided what to spend the money on but she may buy a new car and put some into savings. And she added:
“It doesn’t seem real yet but it’s absolutely fantastic!”
