A bingo winner was left shocked after scoring not one, but two prizes – including a community jackpot.

The regular from Hartlepool had a “full house” after just 19 numbers were called and landed £1,000.

This then triggered a second win for the whole room.

The players at Warrior Retail Park were all participating in Mecca Bingo’s Super Share Saturday game, which saw them automatically land £50,000 to share.

A celebratory party was held as Neil Lamb, the assistant manager, was “swamped” by smiling customers who just couldn’t believe their luck, as reported by What’s The Jam.

“When we had a full house claim on the nineteenth call, the excitement in the club started to mount, as 19 is a really low number of calls in which to complete a ticket,” he said.

“When it was confirmed that Mecca Hartlepool had won the community prize, everyone was cheering and very excited.

“I was swamped by very happy customers who couldn’t believe that they’d all won!”

“Bingo always brings people together, but never more so than when there’s a shared jackpot!,” said Michelle Doherty, general manager at Mecca Bingo Hartlepool.

“Thanks to our regular player winning on the special ‘Super Share Saturday’ game, we had a venue full of winners!

“The ticket holder went home with the £1,000 individual jackpot prize, and then the £50,000 community jackpot was shared between everyone in Hartlepool who had played the game!”
