It was recently reported that Victoria Benabied, a 22-year-old woman from Knowland Grove, U.K., won an outstanding £26,000 (~$48,123) jackpot at a bingo session. After the win, Benabied reportedly explained that, at first, she did not want to go play bingo, but her friend changed her mind.
Usually, the two friends attend Norwich Mecca Bingo Club's Thursday and Sunday sessions. As it ultimately turned out, going to the local bingo hall on a Monday was a good decision on Benabied's part.
When asked about what she intended to do with her bingo windfall, she reportedly responded that she would split the money with her friend in accordance with the pledge they had made. As for Benabied's lucky friend, she was reported as saying that she would use the bingo money to purchase a new car.
