A forty three year old Aberdeen man is going to be sharing his bingo winnings with his father and a friend according to an agreement he had with them, should any of them ever win. He won more than ₤32 000 while playing bingo at the Mecca Club in Berryden Road. The winner has been playing at the same bingo club for many years and is very happy to have finally been able to win a substantial jackpot prize
This winner has to share the prize with another player from Hull, who also called bingo in forty five numbers, winning the National Bingo prize of ₤30 000, the Regional prize of ₤1 811 and a house prize in the amount of ₤300. The lucky man said that he though the number of calls he made bingo in was quite high and did not think that he would win, but he did. Apparently his father got quite a shock by the big win.
He is thinking about using his share of the winnings to take his son with him on a holiday abroad.
Again we have evidence that men too are playing bingo. I mean this gent plays with his father and a friend, although the news snippet does not tell us if the friend is male of female, two out of three is pretty significant when all is told.
