Bingo is a staple pastime all around the world, and friends of all ages get together and stamp the numbers in hopes of winning the main prize of the evening. If you’re playing for fun with your friends, you can create a group chat and decide on an award. It can be anything from actual cash to a little pet animal! You may be shocked to hear of this, but once upon a time, a woman won a huge farm animal playing charity bingo! You don’t believe us? Well, just read on and see for yourself!
What Do People Usually Win At Bingo?
Usually, people play bingo for money. One only needs to take a look at the leading bingo site, Foxy Bingo, to see how big bingo jackpots can actually get. But, there are some differences in the prizes. The size of your win will depend on how many lines of your ticket you stamp, and logically if you block out the entire sheet, you may truly win a lot!
Plus, not all bingo games are the same. There are huge bingo rooms that have prizes of six and even seven figures, while at your local bar, you may only go home richer by a hundred pounds.
Winning A Cash Cow
Some play bingo in hopes to win vast amounts of cash and hopefully change their lives, while others are more hopeful to have an amazing evening with friends. This is what a young American woman had in mind, but then something very unexpected happened. She went home with her own cash cow!
Yes, a real milky cow was the top prize during this charity bingo game. She wasn’t anticipating her reward since other players had already taken home all the great prizes, such as smartphones, TV sets, and kitchen appliances. But the first prize was yet to be taken, and her name was called out. Of course, she was thrilled to win, but we aren’t sure where she put the cow. We hope not in her New York apartment!
Sexy Underwear
Most people, we’re confident, have at least heard of the well-known adult retailer Ann Summer, known for its selection of seductive products, including underwear. They decided to launch their own online bingo site back in 2007.
You can probably guess what the rewards for these bingo games were as well. That is correct: plenty of lingerie and some raunchier prizes too. While their platform didn’t survive long, their rewards are some of the funniest ones out there.
Your Favourite Bingo Reward
Next time you organise a bingo night with your friends, we urge you to come up with a funny bingo prize and have a collective giggle at the end of the night. Some of our suggestions are lingerie, whose funny factor will be taken up a notch if your manliest of friends win it, or a little pet fish which can become a loving low-effort pet. If you decide on a fish, make sure that you have an aquarium that goes with it. Plus, it will already have a name – Bingo!
