What real bingo players would do with £10k jackpot

Not only have Mecca Bingo been giving away £10,000 daily jackpots in October, they’ve been on a quest to find out what real people would do if their dreams came true and they won a big money jackpot. These ‘Mecca Moments’, descriptions of how bingo players would respond to a jackpot win are heart-warming and in some cases very original!

People say they would buy a car, go on a shopping spree, or take a luxury cruise, but what would you really do if you won a big cash prize? This is what MeccaBingo.com wanted to find out and that’s why they launched their Mecca Moments campaign to find out what real online bingo players would do if they hit the jackpot.

The £10,000 daily jackpot prizes that Mecca Bingo have given away in October are more than enough to make a dream come true and MeccaBingo.com players have been sharing their ideas about what they would do it if happened to them through Facebook Twitter and the community at meccabingo.com. Some of the more amusing entries included a dream to travel back in time to see The Beatles live and plans to persuade a reluctant to take a trip up the aisle, but there are also a lot of moving stories.

Angus Nisbet Gaming Director at Meccabingo.com commented: “We’ve been very touched by some of the stories our bingo players have been sharing, it’s very humbling to see how unselfish so many people are – they truly are thinking of other people ahead of themselves.”

“We’ve also discovered that we’ve got a lot of romantic people playing our bingo games, so many of the responses are about dream weddings and honeymoons.”

“We really wish we could give the £10,000 jackpot prize to each and every one of our players and we do wish them all the best of luck.”

There are a number of people who say they would give some, or all, of their winnings immediately away to charity.

For example, Nicole Rastakk told Mecca Bingo she would donate winnings to the charity Corpal, a not-for-profit support group and charity run by parents, families and carers of children and adults who have ACC or Aicardi Syndrome. This is a special charity for Nicole as she and he son have personally benefited from the work Corpal does.

She says: “We never thought he would be where he is now and I’d love to put money into charity so other families get the same support we did.”

“They have made moments in my life I will never forget.”

One of the many wedding-related Mecca Moments was submitted by ‘Firefly’ who would like to drag her fiancé (“probably kicking and screaming”) to Gretna Green to get married!

Sandra Veronique contributed one of the more original Mecca Moments:

“My Mecca Moment would be to step into a time machine and whisk myself back to 1969 to be there when the Beatles performed their last ever gig, on the roof of their Apple Headquarters in Saville Row, London. It was history in the making!
