A lucky 37-year-old mom from Paisley won a £55,000 bingo prize while playing at the Mecca Club in Lonend on Sunday night. The woman, who requested not to be named, said she had only spent £2 on a bingo card when her numbers came up and she was able to shout Bingo!

“It was absolutely fantastic when she won. She jumped out of her seat and screamed the house down,” Alistair Steele, general manager of the club, said. “She is a regular at our club and has been playing here since we opened. Everybody knows her.”

The proud mother-of-three went to play bingo with two good friends and she said she was going to split the money with them. As to the way she would spend her share, the lucky player said she would buy presents for her children and pay off some debts.

This is not the first time a punter wins a huge prize at the Mecca Club in Paisley. In only one year, its members have hit the National Game jackpot three times.
