Lucky Lanarkshire bingo player scoops £50,000 jackpot
An extremely lucky Coatbridge woman is £50,000 richer after she hit the bingo jackpot – for a second time!
Everyone might want to get the weekend's lottery numbers from the fortuitous number-cruncher who scooped the five-figure sum at Buzz Bingo in her home town's Faraday retail park.
It takes the woman's total winnings to £100,000 and the selfless bingo player has decided to split her latest jackpot with a close friend.
The winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, is a regular at Buzz Bingo Coatbridge and often visits the club for a game with her friend.
She is also planning to use her share of the winnings to book her first holiday abroad with her newly-wed son and daughter-in-law.
Angela Foley, general manager at Buzz Bingo Coatbridge, told Lanarkshire Live : “We couldn’t be happier for our lucky winner and their fantastic win.
"Everyone was cheering from their seats – it was such an exciting moment.”
Chief retail officer at Buzz Bingo, Peter Brigden, added: “The atmosphere in the club when there’s a win is always incredible, and we’re delighted to see another customer hit the £50,000 jackpot during the Big Buzz Special at Buzz Bingo Coatbridge.
"Overall, Buzz Bingo players win more than £2m per week in bingo prize money and have now won £3.5m in Big Buzz Special jackpots.
"It’s great to celebrate a win and have the rest of the bingo community celebrate that too.”
