I had never won a jackpot before and I have been playing bingo at Carousel Bingo for the past eight years. It was about a week after my birthday last year and I was playing a coverall. I didn't really know how many numbers were left but I was getting close and just happy to be winning the consolation of $99.00. The only number I needed left was G60 and there it was! Then I heard somone say near me "that's gonna win a chunk of change". Needless to say, I was stunned on winning $1199. My husband had won just about the same the weekend of my birthday at a casino. So I guess turning 35 turned out to be a very lucky end of the year....:)
