A mystery Glasgow winner has scooped a £50k jackpot at Mecca Bingo.
The lifelong bingo player described the win as “life changing” after competing at the Forge shopping centre Friday, July 7.
The win marks the second time in a week that a Glaswegian has struck it lucky at Mecca Bingo, after the Mecca at the Great Western Retail Park in Drumchapel saw a player scoop over £60,000 on Monday, July 3.
The Forge’s lucky 69-year-old winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, won big playing on the National Bingo Game, calling house on the 16th number and triggering the mega £50,000 jackpot.
The winner is known to be a regular at Mecca Bingo and has been attending the club on Duke Street since they were 18.
When asked how they will be spending the money, the overjoyed winner confessed that they are “still struggling to decide how to start spending it!”.
Paul McGlinchey, general manager at Mecca Bingo Glasgow Forge, commented on the win: “We’re always thrilled for our winners, but the £50,000 National Bingo Game jackpot is a real cause for celebration!”
