Me: "6 numbers in a row and I got this"
Number 45
Me: "5 more in a row and I got this"
Number 46
Me: "4 more numbers in a row and I got this"
Number 47
Me: "stupid G47"
I then proceeded to get 3 of the next 4 numbers. They had called 51 numbers and I needed 1 more. I had a chance.
By now, I was pretty nervous, so I laid off the smart-ass comments. Everyone around me also was aware that I only needed 1 more, so they were paying attention to me as well, making my nerves worse - tho I put on a cool exterior. After every number was called I expected someone to yell out "Bingo" and my dreams would be dashed.
Number 52 - no bingo (for me or anyone else)
Number 53 - no bingo (for me or anyone else)
Number 54 - no bingo (for me or anyone else)
Then the 55th number appeared on the screen (which it does before they call it out) - It was the last number I needed: G55 (my new favorite number). I figured it was late in the game so a bunch of people would be calling out bingo and I would have to share my winnings.
Bingo Caller: "G-55"
Me (and only me): "BINGO!!"
I didn't let myself get too excited because Andrew still had to confirm I had a winning card (Paper, marked with my blue dauber). He came over and read of the numbers to the confirmation committee.
Bingo Caller: "That's one good bingo, are there any others"
Andrew: "Do you know how much you just won?"
Me: "Nope"
Bingo Caller: "Once again are there any others...That's one good bingo, paying a jackpot of $1199"
Woohoo!!
This is me and my money in an intimate moment
This is me rolling around in my money (with a crotch shot for all you ladies - and some of you gentlemen)

Did you take everyone out to breakfast? Because if you didn't, you should have, and you're a lousy Bingo winnter and don't deserve to ever, ever win again!
That said, thanks for the invite to play bingo, ya big loser!
Oh, and congrats on your big win! Now go pay towards some of those student loans.
I did take everyone to breakfast, so i'm a good winner.
And would you have really come to play bingo at midnight on a saturday night Hollie? really?
Yes!! I would have come!! I've been Bingo deprived now for six years!! But that's okay, I won't hold it against you. Next time, Derek, NEXT TIME!
I apologize. I'm a jerk. Next time for sure.
Congratulations on your big win. That is awesome!!! I have been begging Landon to take me to play bingo for quite some time now. He thinks it's for old people. Can you believe I have never, ever played Bingo? I am a Bingo virgin. There I said it.
So.....Here's the deal....the next time we are both in Arizona we are gonna go play Bingo! And Hollie can come too so she'll quit her bitchin'. It will be F-U-N.
Way to go, I bet it felt awesome! Did you sing the Bingo song all the way home. I would name a child BINGO, just kid. Congrats!
