By Penny Walker on Tuesday, 29 May 2007 Players at a bingo hall in Norwich claim that it is the luckiest in the country.
It comes after four people scooped large bingo jackpots at the hall in just one week.
They won a combined total of £156,000 on the National Bingo Game while playing at the Mecca Club on Aylsham Road, Norwich.
The first winner took home a fantastic £16,666, while just three days later another player scooped £20,000.
Bingo players must have been thinking that the club's luck would eventually run dry but the next day saw the biggest prize of them handed out.
An unnamed grandmother walked away with an incredible £100,000 after getting a full house on just 40 numbers.
Another £20,000 was won at the club a few days later, completing an incredible run.
"It was a fantastically lucky week," the hall's general manager Mike Etherington told the Norwich Evening News.
"In terms of winning on the National Game it's been the best week since I've been here - £156,000 in one week, it was remarkable.
"I don't think anywhere else would have matched that very easily."
