It's common practice for friends who enjoy bingo to couple up when playing and promise to split any winnings. That friendship pact was tested, however, when a Scottish woman won a huge £200,000+ bingo jackpot over the weekend. Would you give £100,000 to your friend based on a verbal agreement?
Hilary Byers and Alison Greig value their friendship more than any sum of money, and have stuck to their word to share all their bingo winnings. Byers was the lucky player who hit the £201,387 jackpot at a County Bingo hall. Upon receiving the cash, she immediately turned half of it over to her best pal, Greig. This is not the first time that the bosom buddies are sharing a bingo prize. The two have also split a bingo jackpot before, when Greig won £500. With the good fortune to have each other as such fast friends, being lucky enough to win bingo money together is just an extra added bonus.
