3/4 Of The Club Celebrate...1/4 Doesn't! - Old News Archive

Posted On: Thursday, 27 November, 2008

Great article this about a club in Brighton winning the Gala Hi Five jackpot and winning around £700,000. Half that total being given to the winning ticket holder and the rest being dished out to all the other participating players in the hall who took away over £1000 each!!!!!!!

The thing that makes me chuckle in a totally malicious way however is the fact that out of the 320 people playing that afternoon session of bingo, 81 people (just over a 1/4) did not receive a penny because they did not choose to play the extra game!!!!!!!!! I bet a few of them had a whinge at the manager afterwards as well (nobody told me if I wanted it...etc....etc.....etc) The bottom line is they have only got themselves to blame.

It would be interesting to see how many other clubs have the same amount of people who 'opt out' of these big money games?

If I was playing in a Gala club I would opt into the Hi Five game every time-especially now that the National game is not available; it is the only game that offers such a life-changing amount; and 239 people in that club are going to have a fantastic xmas and new year.........WELL DONE!!!!!
